I do like them new International Rigs. The fenders on the rear look great in the prototype. I like the extender stinger axles as well. Maybe a good year for trucks maybe.


The trailers are XL Specialized models.

Looks great, why is it so hard to find a jeep. Alberta can't be the only place on earth they exist.

Was told that DM had only Aussie's rights of International Trucks to compete with Drake... Are you sure that the North American models are in the deal?



Dunno why when international trucks don’t exist here anymore


International Trucks have come back after CAT and Navistar deal didn't work out, I believe International Truck never left the US Market.

The comment was made by “Heavy load” that DM got an AU licence to product the international Trucks to compete against the Drake Product line
Robert Huston then commented why when international trucks don’t exist here. (I Agree)
And if you look at the trucks that are clearly left-hand drive USA spec prime mover tucks that are towing an American spec low boy trailer.
The point is USA style low boys are not all that popular in Australia so how is this product line going to compete against Drake
