I think they both have their strengths and weakesses, and it would really depend on what you were using them for.
The biggest complaint I have ever had with the M37 is cramming two people into the tiny cab. They are small in comparison to the M715.
The longer wheelbase can be an advantage with the M715 in some cases, and a detriment in others. They will high center fairly easy. The wide track is better though for sidehill stability.
The sheetmetal on an M37 is definitely heavier and stronger. The 715 feels a bit tinny in comparison.
The pretty heavy boxed frame on the 715 is a strength in my opinion.
They were all built for the military though and compared to anything civvy they are both far stronger than what was on the road at the time.
