International MXT Truck

Check out the new International MXT Pickup on their website or click on the link below. It has a VT365 V8 Diesel engine, 300 HP, 530 ft. lbs. of torque, Allison 1000 RDS 5-speed Automatic trans., 20-inch Alloy Wheels w/Pro Comp 40/13.5R20 tires. It's pretty wild.

Hmm... That's a sick thing!

But it's shorter and narrower than my Dodge. It's about the same height than my Dodge is.

That cost's twice as much, has no power or real engine () .

But it's cool! And has good tires.

It's cool. But I like my Dodge more.

I'm sorry, but I'll take a Unimog U500 over one of those things all day long, if you like the Hummer H2, the Int. is the next step up. If you want a truck thats useful for something besides making your next music video, the 'Mog is the only choice!

I know everyone NEEDS a truck with 1000 different attachments like a skidloader.

That International is a joke. The company is losing money and they spend their time designing a "thing" that very few people would ever even consider buying, is WAY overpriced and comes with that all so reliable 6.0L boat anchor.

This pretty much sums it up:

When people see you driving an International® MXT™, they don't forget it. They look up from their tricked out SUVs, and realize they don’t have the coolest ride on the street anymore. They're even more jealous when you press your foot down and let the force of 300 horsepower leave them in awe of what they just witnessed.

And while you’re savoring all the attention, you'll be relishing in the lush comfort of the spacious interior. Features like touch-screen CD/DVD radio, GPS navigation, ivory-faced sport gauges and leather seats make you question whether it looks better from the inside or from the street. Why don't you find out for yourself?

Starting at $89,500

But I bet you'll see Snoop Dogg in that thing for his next music video, because he is such a tough guy he needs a truck like that to prove it!
