Cord, I was thinking the same thing...you'd think with the money you're spending, they'd at least build a proper bed for it...instead of plopping a dually bed on top...anybody can do that...

The USA Today had an article on it, target market is men with big trailers and big boats - something about both having big egos.

Just about the same price as a Hummer, the last one I drove had 70K miles on it and it was a bucket of bolts.

Its just a glorified highway combine. Looks nice, but my experience with IHC has not been good. I prefer Freightliners. Awesome support network.

Re: Check Out This Truck

International's press release included this little snippet and I was quite surprised they actually INCLUDED the last one:

Among businesses for whom the International CXT is ideal: construction, lawn care businesses, lawn and garden stores, brick or stone contractors, home builders, carpenters, landscape designers, roofers, home improvement companies, auto body repair or custom paint shops, commercial boating businesses and boat racers.
