I hate autos in semis. Gimeme a 13 speed

@@CupwakeRBLX just like wind up windows, they had their place years ago, but the technology is here to do it a better way. Hours and hours of rush hour traffic convinced me. Not calling you wrong for what you like, I'm just saying I've moved on.

garthks ridiculous. Water pump failure iminet on that piece of shit when you really need it most. not good when you lose all your coolant on the side of the highway 1000 miles from home.

garthks true

These things are bullet proof them dt466 engines go and go and go they arent peices of shits any international navistar enigine will run circles around any cummis not in power but reliability

Alex Blackwell there's a reason they get called intertrashionals around my shop man its junk that always breaks.

Justin Peterson you must have bad luck with them the newer one are junk these and the older 80s model s17 and 1800s are awsome ive never herd them called that lol but mabey youve just had junk ones ive got a 1986 s1754 with a 9.0 awsome truck here in South Carolina the school buses are still 80s modle international s1700s with 7.3 idis they seem to never stop they are replaceinng newer ones and keeping the old internationals they are good trucks well the ones ive delt with the new ones ar complete trash though

garthks I was about to say since when did diesels have chokes?

Diesels have never had chokes, there is no need for them. There are no Carbs on a Diesel Engine to have to choke down the air flow. Not all diesel engines have the fuel shut off knob on the dash either. To my knowledge, and please correct me if I'm wrong, but I do believe that only the International Diesels used the fuel cut off knob to shut down the engine. I drive 2 different School Buses at my job, which are both powered with Cummins Diesel Engines, and neither of them use the fuel shut off knob shown here to shut down the engines, you just turn the ignition key to the off position, and the engine shuts down on it's own.

garthks Yes, I'm aware of that. I was being sarcastic since when he started the engine, he said "make sure the choke knob is pushed in". Mack trucks also used a red shut off knob. I have 3 "R" models that all have them.

garthks depends if it’s electronically controlled or not

Are you kidding me my six year old could design any part of their trucks better than they did I service trucks every day and believe me those shitty internationals break more than any other brand

Peterbilt and Kenworth are the best if were being honest

Hell no! They're the least reliable trucks on the road!

Maxxforce is by far the worst engine ever made in the 2000's.

The International 9400I Eagle with Cummins ISX and Eaten transmission is a solid truck. Just make sure its been taken care of.

Its all about the same i guess

Because the international School buses were built off the cab and frame of this trucks similar to this

HUNTSMAN_VLOGS_ 742 needs a mirror too

The door and rocker panel is mangled.

Douglas Moon yesss

You keep asking but its not as easy as it sounds haha. Its a business, I get just enough time to film stuff inbetween actual work going on. Plus, when the whistle blows no one sticks around long haha.

Andrew Plantagenet no idoling doesn’t increase miles

+Sam Glorioso That looks like damage caused by a hit from a fork lift. I've seen similar damage on a lot of trucks, and seen it inflicted a few times...

Fleetari it's for setting or releasing the trailer brakes

+Christopher Rae I believe a lot of Bluebird buses were built on International chassis so a lot of the buses will share a lot of parts with International trucks of the same period...

That's cool i guess it cuts down manufacturing costs and time. At least it makes it easier to replace something. But one thing I was wondering do they buy them from a aftermarket company that makes them?

They so

Cool! Small world!

Yeah. Love your videos

Is there more then one Manufacturing plant for Grote? Or just the one you work for? Where might it be located ?

I work it the main plant in Madison Indiana. They have plants in Canada. Mexico. Germany. And china

Thats pretty neat! Learn something new everyday!

What ?

Jay Smart I think he's asking how much for it..

Hi

That's one of the best ideas I heard.there are pickup conversions out there.

Christopher Martinez No, no "kits" that I know of, but I've seen a lot of guys take these big cab trucks and go shopping at the local junk yard or at the salt truck conversion place. One of the best conversions I seen was a late 60's early 70's International Harvester with what looks like a Chevrolet bed on it, it matches the cab lines almost perfectly. Look at my Pinterest under truxx and COE. Best,

300,000? Lol, ok...more like 650K.

CoinHuntingDrew shit i seem dodge commins with 800.000 miles

Jon Houck tractor trailer engines can last for millions of miles yes big trucks have bigger in odometers because they are able to go and last more than a car

biohazard 7737 same with ford f series old trucks are the best new truck suck

Winner Winner!
