    Thank you, Sir.
    I worked for a International Truck Dealer from 1987-2000.
    Made a decent living fixing trucks.

    This video is legit. If someone custom built a truck for me, this would be it. I've been in one for 2 weeks. The Cummins Engine is nice.

    Love international pro star.
    386k still going strong. It all depends how you care and keep it serviced. Last truck was a eagle package with 980k with one over head job on it. I’ve been very well pleased with them.

    I work for a major distribution company and we are replacing all manuals with automatics. It makes good business sense from a maintenance and workers comp perspective.

    Automatics are fine. No biggie.. But it's still a Prostar with a few new components. The reliability and durability will deteriorate rapidly after 100k.

      Vic Med frieghtliner are great trucks, awesome turning radius, smooth engines and transmissions but no compartments to put anything in, in their daycabs.

    My boss got suckered into leasing 3 2013. So far he has put a not 20k into 2 of them at it's only been like 4 months. Each truck has about 300k miles and things are failing left and right. Just for an alternator on mine it was 2,400 for the alternator not including labor. I was down for 5 days waiting just to get one. These trucks are very expensive to maintain.

    Better than T680 on fuel and backing into docks (award). Luxury interior (award), but it's a sardine can. Need a bunk for gear, ecm programmed for tourists, Cruising at 70 will cause DPF issues, crawls hills, no reason for idle shutdown, park Regen is supposed to work. Look at step to door you can see how much they squeeze you to get fuel savings, Kenworth should be worried, very nice truck and thousands cheaper. Pack light, or get extra tool boxes watch front axle weights. 7.2 @ 30K

    Would be nice if they put a pull out table on sleeper cabs. Nothing. You
    eat on your lap and drops food on the chair in between your thighs.
    Would like a space for commonly used things like gloves, thumper, and
    flash light by the fire extinguisher side. My gloves keep dropping out
    and missing. A keyless entry on those small side doors, A MORE VISIBLE
    SIGNAL LIGTHS ON THE SIDES, a redesigned dashboard indicator lights. I
    cant see if Im on high beam, or in cruise control.
    The
    placement of the switches I suggest should be redesigned. The emrgency
    or fourway switch is too far and i happen to press the SUSP/DUMP. The
    seldom used switches like the Diferential Lock, Traction control, etc...
    are rarely used and therefore should not be near the drivers reach.
    When
    rainy, my gloves and the spares gets wet. If only theres a space to
    warm up the gloves or shoes like a dry space under the footsteps or near
    the battery area. If INTERNATIONAL accepts criticism from drivers,
    their trucks would turn out to be the best among trucks

    The only problem I see when running co phase antennas electrically they are supposed to be 8 feet apart to work and around no metal for SWR to match it’s not going to be a very good antenna system at all

    that second bed if he dosent flip it sucks! because when i'm sit in my bed i like to have some light...and those 2 light under the bed are to strong and to much in my face... another things that international should do..we are in 2018 and everybody have flat screen.. put a rack for that tv on the wall. those feet stand on the tv always broke because it shake so much in those international truck...i know i broke my in my 2014 prostar... now i have a 2016 lonestar and my second bed flip so i have put a tv rack on the cabinet... i really think its still a prostar with a different name and a different dashboard..i'm not impressed with that...i think western star and even freight liner have really improve there trucks compare to international.
    thanks for the review

    • @timconway7860

  • @tannerrobinson5110
    @tannerrobinson5110 7 лет назад

    I feel like it's alot more similar to the Western Star 5700 than any other international truck. But yet again Western Star and International Trucks are owned by the same company...

    • @xhawkeye8717
      @xhawkeye8717 6 лет назад +2

      Tanner Robinson Wrong on both accounts. Western Star and Freightliner are owned by Daimler. International is owned by Navistar.

      Matthew Scarberry I agree that international engines suck, they lack reliability. But Im a former dump truck driver, international chassis are pretty tough. I think if you spec one with a Cummins and 13 or 18 spd, you would have a damn good truck. International also has the largest dealership infrastucture, thats a good thing.

    Still waiting on my truck to be delivered to Hogan Leasing in Indianapolis. The company I work for signed a new lease but the truck is already a month late. Driving a Mack while waiting. It rides great, but all newer trucks are crap because of the DEF systems. Why did we allow this crap sandwich to be forced down our throats? With all the new regulations, the industry is going to have trouble for a long time.

    @aj2x694 6 лет назад

    They need to make it so that when you sit down or lay down you don’t have to wake up or get up to a Bed in over your head that would be more comfortable this truck is not designed for a truck driver I disagree there is no Confort I think no grown man should wake up feeling like he’s under a bunkbed with his little brother or sister sorry it’s a nice truck Billy look good but it doesn’t look comfortable

    The truth is they come with a black box in the windshield and a radar thatll tell u how fast the vehicle in front of you is going. If youre too close to them or if theyre going 1mph slower than you for around 1 truck length itll beep at you. Very annoying. Itll beep at you all day long even if you drive it the right way for other reasons. Youre better off sticking with your prostar than to put up with this annoying piece.

  • @brianmaxwell2303

  • @Ward413
    @Ward413 5 лет назад

    My company assigned me one of these trucks and it’s probably one of the most miserable trucks I’ve ever driven, especially bobtail. The shifting is easily the slowest in the industry. The transmission is a straight idiot. Eaton Fuller should stick with standard transmissions because they have no idea what they’re doing with their automated manuals.
    I’m almost positive the truck will limit power depending on weight because when I’m bobtailing, it’s dangerously slow. There’s no way it’s giving you full power. It’s a disgusting truck. If your company tried to give you one, ask for a different manufacture. Trust me.

  • @Starethefurry
    @Starethefurry 7 лет назад

    All I know is standard and I truly believe if we look at statistics I believe automatic trucks are and will be more involved in accidents then manuals. One if you can't drive a manual I personally don't believe you should be on the road till you can and two it just seems like it would be easy to get lazier and sleepier with these automatics. I will find out soon. Right now I drive a kenworthr680 10speed but our company are transferring to these trucks.
