Looks like they decided to build the "Big Red Truck":

 

International CXT

I have seen the International pickup in picture form only and it seems quite impressive. But it is expensive and I'm not sure how useful it would be for other than companies who would buy it as advertising platforms, much like many Hummers are used.

 

I can't see it as much good for towing, it seems a bit high for a gooseneck, although I'm sure it would do well with a lowered ball hitch for a non 5 th wheel trailer.

 

I saw a 4 door GMC 4500 4wd with a small dump body at the local dealership. Now that seemed to be more useful and I have a feeling the price is prob. cheaper.

 

I don't think International intends to crank out too many. I used to drive an International (farm grain truck) and I think quite highly of them. This new International just does not seem too practical to me.

:cheers:

 

 

 

 

Dang, for a British built vehical its rather big.

 

 

 

The feeling around well anywhere who knows about the International Pick-Up is that its Internationals attempt at pulling a Hummer of there own sorts.

 

Hummers used to be all Goverment, Military, etc...used. Then Arnold wanted one and people started to ask about them, all of a sudden they realized they could sell it to the public, thus GM made a nice pocket of $$$.

Sadly they ruined it with the H2, god I hate that piece of *($. Personaly I wished they made this into the production Hummer, Hummer H1 SUV.

 

Only thing is with International, none of the public realy shows much interest in buying a International Pick-Up like they do a Hummer. Arnold will prb buy the International Pick-Up though. :confused:

      2007 Silverado classic Cooling fan running

      By Mistycool · Posted

      I am having similar issues.. 08, 4.8L granted I did had a fender bender and minor damage up front passenger side but I don’t think it had anything to do with it.. I had the high and low pressure checked and my fan for my radiator keeps coming on.. replaced the pressure switch and don’t want to keep throwing parts at it. I did have some minor problems here and there like on long road trips sometimes the ac would get a little warm and then on the highway as soon as I give it a little gas or get a little heavier on the petal it started running cooler. Never had an issue with the ac besides the here and there.. but I also started having issues when I fuel up now it takes a bit to start ( super embarrassing) it runs fine and once started ( only happens after fueling up) starts fine any other time. Could they be related?

      Spent a small fortune on fuel this weekend.   $6.69 diesel, 18 gallons of that. $6.99 92-octane ethanol free, 10 gallons of that for yard machines $5.59 87-octane for one of the cars, 11 gallons.   $250+ and I didn't even get a tug.   Hormuz ain't Hormuzin again, did not see that coming...LOL

      Auto start stop disable

      Appreciate the advice. I've watched multiple videos. Most showing the most complex for those that have a center console, to one that showed maybe 2 pieces of trim being removed, like 6 screws, pulling back the screen and switch assembly, and installing the inline module. And this was a new/newer Silverado. That didn't look too bad. All the others show alot of trim pieces that need to be removed. I've broken those kind of tabs/clips on my C8 Corvette trying to get to the battery, and that was a lot less clips than what I think is involved here after watching multiple videos and looking at my dash today. I have one on the way. Called a reputable stereo place about installing it and got a "minimum" price of $175. Ouch! Looking forward to seeing what the instructions have to say.

      Ac not keeping up

      By Atlas · Posted

      Hard to say what the issue might be. Anything from the ability to cool the AC condenser up front, to blend door issues in the HVAC unit, to refrigerant charge, to compressor issues or issues in the lines.   Report back what the techs find on the 29th.   GM has service publications which list acceptable vent temperatures and AC pressures at given ambient temps and humidity. They probably won't touch the system if it's operating within those ranges.   I'm also surprised to hear your 2024 with the L8T is still using R134a? I was pretty sure the HD's had switched to the new refrigerant around 2020.
