What is it?

Just saw an International today. It was on a rig rolling west into Amarillo. It looked like a cross between the big International pick-up and an H-1. Didn't get a chance to see it closer, but it was an attention getter...:drive: Anyone see something like this? Rog

What ever they are they are def very cool, but out of most everybodies price range. Ford has the big F650. What I dont understand with those is, you have the option to get a powerstoke or Interantional in them. Seems to me that the powerstroke would be a little small for a truck that big.

The F-650 and F-750

Run 6.0's or CAT's.

Its ok

Actually the 6.0 is a decent motor in that big truck. They will run down the highway quite well.

Thats cool. I would have just figured with the size and with a larger load(maybe) that the 6.0 would be a little small. But I am no tech and def cant aford one so I have not idea.

It's all in the tranny and gearing.

Even with what I said I still don't like to work on them.
