Why wasn't this technology used by other auto makers after the end of Packard.......?


I think expense was one reason -- also possibly the standard old "not invented here" was another. It was patented by Allison and in the DVD interview he mentions some tests that were being done to incorporate the system with some other mfgs. There is a Rambler shown on some of the runs over the RR tracks. He didn't go into details as to all he might have been working with but just mentions he had hoped to license it to other mfgs but that didn't happen.
