Default What, if any, are the differences between the XM and M 818?

I bought a 66 model 818 with the multifuel. Due to euc deadlines, I don't know yet if that deal is viable or not. If not, I have my eye on some XM's . What are the differences between the two?

The "X" designates it is an experimental design. That means it was a non "contract" production truck.

If it's actually a 66, it won't be an 818.
