Haulers

Helping you reach the summit is not the only thing we excel at. Getting back down the hill safely is just as important. Engineered by the truck experts with a safety first approach. Tested in the harsh Colorado climate, the Summit Hauler passed every test with flying colors.

Colorado is home to the nation's highest paved highways - 14,000+ feet - the perfect proving grounds to test what is becoming the most trusted name in hauling today.

Safety and style to spare

The Summit Hauler's rugged exterior belies its elegantly appointed interior. Custom leather upholstery, genuine burled wood accents and state-of-the art electronics create a comfortable traveling environment for you and your passengers.

Designed for Safety First

The Summit Hauler is perfectly designed and balanced, ensuring proportional use of both front and rear axles, even when loaded to 100% capacity. When unloaded, the mass of the body is weighted to aid in a comfortable ride that is a welcome treat after a hard day.

The Summit Hauler is thoroughly tested in every aspect. Stress points have been identified and reinforced, enabling even load distribution for easy handling, increased safety and unsurpassed durability.

The advanced Summit Hauler design is above the competition when it comes to designs for safety, comfort and durability. Designed in Colorado by people that know hauling and understand the demands of climbing and descending 14,000 feet peaks.

BrakeSmart™

Getting your truck moving is one thing, but more important is safely bringing it and your cargo to a safe stop. That's exactly why the Summit Hauler utilizes a BrakeSmart™ brake controller. The BrakeSmart™ controller will automatically compensate for electric brake fade and will constantly keep your brakes at their maximum performance.

You've probably heard how great pendulum style brake controllers are. The BrakeSmart™ trailer brake controller goes one better by sensing the truck's pedal pressure with its solid-state pressure sensor, and activating the trailer's brakes proportionally in connection with its size and weight. BrakeSmart™ is the only true proportional brake controller on the market today, placing it light years ahead of the competition.

Why We Use Allison Transmissions

It's smooth shifting and easy to drive, and yet still the most durable and proven transmission on the market. The heavy-duty Allison torque converter is at the heart of what makes an Allison Automatic the most effective, efficient and productive medium and heavy-duty commercial transmission in the world. Premium shifting performance, faster acceleration, greater operating flexibility, minimal rollback, reduced maintenance, lower driveline stress and reduced towing charges are all advantages that can be attributed to it.

Allison's torque converter multiplies engine torque and provides an infinite range of low-end ratio coverage, acting as a continuously variable transmission. The result is an Allison-equipped vehicle accelerates faster, shifts smoother and outperforms vehicles with other types of transmissions.

Engine Accessibility

Business Class M2 106 trucks are designed to be easier to maintain, keeping service to a minimum. Easy to reach components, see-through fluid reservoirs and a removable floor section for transmission access make inspection and service hassle-free.
