International CXT : 2005

Your eyes don't deceive you. It's a pickup truck. From International. Which makes it much more than a pickup truck. It's an International CXT - born out of the proven International 7300 severe service truck used by professionals for the most rugged applications.

So you get all the attributes of a commercial truck - but you don't need a commercial driver's license to drive it.

The legendary International DT 466 diesel engine provides up to 6 tons of hauling power. The air-ride cab and seats provide an exceptionally smooth ride. And aspacious and well-appointed interior ensures automotive-like comfort and convenience.

The result of more than a century of leadership in the truck market, the International CXT delivers performance. In a big way.

Born out of a 20-ton hauler and other International - severe service trucks used by the construction, government and waste industries, the International CXT is built on the same platform as dump trucks and snowplows. As a result, it is a vehicle unrivaled in capability, size and appearance. It hauls three times the payload of consumer pick-up trucks, is all-wheel drive, uses air brakes for unmatched stopping ability and offers towing, dumping and tilt bed capability.

Additionally, it features a spacious interior with crew cab design that seats six and can be customized to meet owners' specific needs - from paint color to air seats to flat screen TVs.

For people who want to make a statement while driving in luxury, try a customized black International CXT featuring leather interior with wood grain trim, reclining captain chairs, a fold-down bench that can be used as a bed, an overhead compartment with drop-down DVD, an XM satellite premium radio system and a rear-mounted camera for increased visibility behind the vehicle. The drivetrain features a smooth-shifting Allison 2500 Series 5-speed automatic transmission and the ride is softened by a cab air suspension system.
