I can't say that there are any flaws in the 200 that contributed to the death of Allis. It was also nothing special. We still use one today for the bigger stuff. For how old it is it's fairly reliable. BUT, the cab is noisy, the transmission sucks, the engine is cold blooded, and it's a torqueless wonder. Can't shift on the go, it pops out of 3rd just thinking about going downhill and pops out of 2nd downhill with a heavy load. The PD is great in my opinion. Dead reliable. It would be useless without it because it lacks true live PTO. It won't start below 60F and has no lugging ability what so ever. Just falls flat on it's face when the going gets tough. The early 190Xt also had major rear end problems, which didn't help it's reputation at all.The 190 and 200 had little to do with the demise of Allis. I think it's more than fair to blame that on the 7000 series. Had Allis skipped the 7000 and gone right to the 8000 series, they would have had a better chance of being around today.
