1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been
prepared by the company without audit. However, the foregoing statements
contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments)
which are, in the opinion of company management, necessary to present
fairly the condensed consolidated financial statements. Certain
reclassifications have been made to the 1995 condensed consolidated
financial statements to conform to the 1996 presentation.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It is
suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in
the company's 1995 annual report to shareholders.

unliquidated progress payments.

3. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
Earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of shares outstanding. The average number of
shares outstanding was 8,871,816 and 8,711,342, respectively, for the
three month periods and 8,902,703 and 8,710,239, respectively, for the
six month periods ended March 30,1996 and April 1, 1995. Stock options,
warrants and stock issuable under incentive compensation awards were not
dilutive in any of the periods presented.
OSHKOSH TRUCK CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Second Quarter 1996 Compared to 1995

Net income for the second quarter of the 1996 fiscal year was $2.2 million
or $.25 per share compared to net income of $1.3 million or $.16 per share
in 1995. Net income in the second quarter of the 1995 fiscal year was
reduced by a charge of $.4 million or $.05 per share related to
discontinued operations of the company's U.S. and Mexico chassis
businesses which were sold in June 1995.

Net sales for the current quarter were $103.1 million compared to $107.4
million in the quarter ended March 1995. Defense sales increased to $56.3
million in the second quarter of fiscal 1996 from $54.3 million in the
second quarter of the 1995 fiscal year. Commercial sales decreased to
$46.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1996 from $53.1 million in
the second quarter of fiscal 1995 due to a decline in trailer sales of
$11.4 million resulting from continuing softness in the trailer industry
partially offset by an increase in construction vehicle sales.

Gross income was $13.8 million or 13.4% of sales in the second quarter of
the 1996 fiscal year compared to $13.9 million or 12.9% of sales in the
1995 fiscal year. The improved margins are due to improved pricing,
continued productivity improvements, and material cost control on
commercial products.

Operating expenses totaled $10.6 million in the second quarter of the 1996
fiscal year compared to $10.1 million in the comparable period of the 1995
fiscal year. The increase is primarily attributable to higher marketing
and developments costs in support of international sales and the company's
entry into the rear discharge concrete mixer business.

Interest income (expense), net improved by $365,000 as a result of the
company's higher average investments in the 1996 fiscal year.
Miscellaneous expense declined by $463,000 largely due to the impact on
1995 results of $418,000 of expenses related to the company's equity
investment in a Mexican bus manufacturer.

The effective income tax rate declined to 35.0% in the second quarter of
the 1996 fiscal year from 43.6% in 1995. The 1995 rate was adversely
impacted by non-deductible losses related to the company's equity
investment in a Mexican bus manufacturer.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

First Six Months 1996 Compared to 1995

Net income for the first half of the 1996 fiscal year was $3.8 million or
$.43 per share compared to net income of $2.9 million or $.33 per share
in 1995. Net income in the 1995 fiscal year period was reduced by a
charge of $1.4 million or $.17 per share related to discontinued
operations of the company's U.S. and Mexico chassis businesses which were
sold in June 1995.

Net sales for the six months ended March 1996 were $183.7 million compared
to $202.9 million in the six months ended March 1995. Defense sales
totaled $114.1 million for the first six months of fiscal 1996,
substantially unchanged from $115.4 million in the first half of the 1995
fiscal year. Commercial sales decreased to $69.6 million in the first
half of fiscal 1996 from $87.5 million in the first half of fiscal 1995
largely due to a decline in trailer sales of $19.2 million.

Gross income was $25.3 million or 13.8% of sales in the first half of the
1996 fiscal year compared to $26.2 million or 12.9% of sales in the 1995
fiscal year. The improved margins are due to improved pricing, continued
productivity improvements, and material cost control on commercial
products.

Operating expenses totaled $19.9 million in the first six months of the
1996 fiscal year compared to $18.6 million in the comparable period of the
1995 fiscal year. The increase is primarily attributable to higher
marketing and development costs in support of international sales and the
company's entry into the rear discharge concrete mixer business.

Interest income (expense), net improved by $614,000 as a result of the
company's higher average investments in the 1996 fiscal year.
Miscellaneous expense declined by $414,000 largely due to the impact on
1995 results of $418,000 of expenses related to the company's equity
investment in a Mexican bus manufacturer.

The effective income tax rate declined to 36.5% in the first six months of
the 1996 fiscal year from 40.7% in the first half of the 1995 fiscal year.
The 1995 rate was adversely impacted by non-deductible losses related to
the company's equity investment in a Mexican bus manufacturer.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the first six months of fiscal 1996, cash and cash equivalents
decreased by $11.5 million. Cash of $6.0 million was used in operations
principally to fund a $19.7 million increase in inventories related to
customer orders scheduled to ship in the second half of fiscal 1996. The
increase in inventories was partially offset by earnings in the period, a
$4.4 million increase in accounts payable related to the inventory build
and the realization of $3.3 million of current assets of discontinued
operations. Working capital requirements are anticipated to remain at
high levels through the remainder of the 1996 fiscal year. Capital
additions and increases in other assets totaling $7.6 million during the
first six months of fiscal 1996 principally related to investments to
enter the rear discharge concrete mixer business. Dividends and stock
repurchases totaled $4.2 million in the first six months of fiscal 1996.
Partially offsetting these requirements was $2.0 million of cash proceeds
from the sale of property, plant, and equipment, principally related to
the sale of the company's airplane.

Effective March 13, 1996, the company re-negotiated its bank credit
agreement to increase its revolving credit facility from $45 million to
$55 million on substantially the same terms as the previous facility.

The company believes its internally generated cash flow, supplemented by
progress payments when available, and the existing credit facility will be
adequate to meet working capital and other operating and capital
requirements of the company in the foreseeable future.

BACKLOG

The backlog as of March 30, 1996 was $304 million compared to $350 million
at September 30, 1995. Major United States Department of Defense trucks
backlog consists of Palletized Load System (PLS) vehicles, Heavy Expanded
Mobility Tactical Trucks (HEMTT), including the start of a HEMTT rebuild
program, and Logistics Vehicle System (LVS) trucks.

STOCK BUY BACK

In July 1995, the company's board of directors authorized the repurchase
of up to 1,000,000 shares of Class B common stock. As of April 30, 1996,
the company has purchased 246,100 shares under this program at a cost of
$3.5 million or $14.29 per share.

ALLIANCE

Implementation of the Strategic Alliance with Freightliner Corporation
continued in the second quarter. The company had signed a Distribution
Agreement with Freightliner Corporation on December 13, 1995 under which
seven models of Oshkosh construction, refuse and other heavy duty trucks
will be sold through Freightliner dealers. Significant incremental
volumes are not expected to be achieved under the Distribution Agreement
during the 1996 fiscal year. The company expects to spend up to $2.0
million in the current fiscal year related to new product and market
development related to products to be distributed through Freightliner
dealers and other associated administrative activities.

Freightliner Corporation was awarded a $49.5 million defense contract for
269 U.S. Army M916 and M917 series of trucks. The company is currently
working with Freightliner Corporation to novate the U.S. Army M916 and
M917 contract to Oshkosh, in which case production would begin in Oshkosh
in the first quarter of the 1997 fiscal year.
