International Lonestar

[TimothyLeeFunk]

@vivitar45 I have hit a few deer with mine the factory bumber caved one the first one then I threw on the one that covers the grill n everything not a scratch or anything since

[MsDamonk1]

WOW!!! In my eyes thats the best looking factory built truck on the roads!!!

[francois05]

Nice truck with nice backdrop. Looks like Northern California in

early Spring; I recognize the Bay Bridge lower deck, what looks like Interstate 80

on approach to San Francisco, possibly even Napa Wine Country.

[Bradentucky]

That could go on a Motörhead album cover.

[chuckbear1961]

I trully love the retro craze going on these days breaking the mold on ugly same looking vechicals. I seen the New Holland Boomer 8N last summer ,and one of these semi tractors last fall thought it was very nice change from boxy trucks.

It makes you think of a supersized PT cruiser

[dodeeze]

Stephen King movie?

[LorenzoMoore1000]

This should have been the next 379 Exhd/w900-L

[cold60433]

[vivitar45]

it looks like it's all plastic wonder what happen if you hit a deer with it i'm shoure it would just explode to bits

[ancientastronomer]

@vivitar45 SAME as ANY other Modern-Day Tractor.

[197168602]

oooooooo nice truck

[Diegotheripper]

that´s amazing men!!!, mexico waits for that!!

[Haulero]

Que en Mexico el International es el Dina?

[Diegotheripper]

No son lo mismo sino el resultado de la disolución de dina en international, llamemoslo evolución de....

[Haulero]

te confiezo que de primero se me hizo algo feo el frente de este camion, pero mirandolo bien esta chingon :)

[martintheman16]

Nice international. International are the best trucks.

[spike702]

they are not pet is the best trucks out there

[fdjcengine2]

Don't have the time to go though 65 comments. You all have opinions that are your opinions & thats ok. Just hope nobody typed FRIEGHTLINER.

[cmscania1971]

the comment that turbine power69 made i found untrue. in the UK most fuel is retailed through supermarkets this stuff is like turpintine that u wash paint brushes in.this gives poor fuel mileage compared to fuel of 10 years ago.on vehicle reg docs type of fuel used to say heavy oil .fuel used to be green shell and blue esso

[dannyW900]

this has got to be the ugliest truck ever created.

[Yamaha950]

that title belongs to the t800.

LOVE THE LONESTAR, its diffrent, it looks completly diffrent. that makes it cool.

[zacatetas]

who ever designed the outside of the t800 was from the soviet union

[bubba2301]

no that would be the freightliner cascadia

[Strassenelefant]

looks nice.

but i dont like the headlights...

[Bulgar681]

WOW!

[RPHELPS922]

Just a pro-star with a different hood.Looks like something from a batman movie.

[zeruxzero]

i bet this will never be a fleet truck

[adi2ude04]

from what i have heard, Wal mart pushed them to make a more aerodynamic truck and this is what they came up with

[chaderic52]

Walmart had no influence on this truck. This isn't the type of truck they run in their fleet. They may run a cheap Prostar, but this isn't a fleet truck, especially for walmart.

[bubba2301]

no this is for owner operators who like the big hoods but want fuel mileage. see no external air cleaners and fairing down the tanks.

[chaderic52]

Which is the same idea as the Coronado. We, Freightliner, won't sell a large group of Coronado's to fleets, like we do the Columbias for example. It keeps the resale value up and make them more exclusive so O/O are more interested in owning them for a premium. That will be the same concept followed by International on the Lonestar.

[TwiztdTruckr25]

damn i gotta get me one of those! looks way better than a pete or a kenworthless lol.

[BrandoCommando69er]

The only thing that is worthless is a 13-letter shit spreader aka INTERNATIONAL

[TRUCKERMcD]

And you would know this....how?

[chilfktr]

he's a trucker.He knows every damn thing.

[rbrandtleek]

god thats truck is soo damn ugly

[lan262]

UGLY

[FatouLastic]

What a nice little farm truck...Like the song says: "Peterbilt, a truck for a man to drive"...

[CACressida]

Peterbilts are nice for what they are, but they don't dominate all trucks. The only Petes that are worth driving is the 379/389/386. The 387 is the biggest turd on the planet.

[camaroracer454]

why do you post that on all videos? No1 cares, a truck is a truck.

[FatouLastic]

I've seen the videos you have on tour site...I don't even know why you say "A truck is a truck"...You seem to like them quite a bit.

[camaroracer454]

ok well my first comment was me being an asshole so sorry. idk

[FatouLastic]

No Problem...lol

[TwiztdTruckr25]

thats why international designed this beast. to piss off all the peterbilt drivers who think that driving a peterbilt is hardcore trucking. there aint nothing special about a pete. every rookie fresh out of jb schneider fuck up school wants a long nose truck so they can be a hardass. this truck puts kenworth and peterbilt to shame. it just looks better

[grignosse]

To each his own, huh?...

[nchayfarmer]

yea i was thinkin of the same thing i think its pretty sweet wonder what the full price is with all the chrome n extras on it is

[kdraper2007]

price is somewhere north of $120,000.

[nchayfarmer]

worth every penny to me

[pmcollectorboy]

Not as aerodynamic as the ProStar. Definitely nicer looking.

Kinda like a beefed up PT Cruiser. XD

Hey. No sound. I wanna hear the engine purr!

[jamesathen]

Wow, finally a truck company thinking out of the box, and staying away from the box design. This is the super model now of trucks and this design will revolutionize the industry. I bet in 2-3 years, the other companies will make crazy truck designs like this just to catch up. I want to get into trucking part time as a life long dream and this new toy might just get me into it sooner then later. Nothing but Interantional!

[TurbinePower69]

The old saying.."The more "we" progress....the

more we....REgress" definitely applies to IH's

new "Lonestar"......because they "took" the

hood design right from one of their trucks

built back in the 1930's [or early 40's]....

Very Nice....but, only wish they had "carried"

the design into the cab and the dash.

[huky5000]

@jamesathen as a truck driver and fleet owner i tell you just try volvo before you try for any other truck !!!!!!!!!!

[CrackinVTEC666]

@huky5000 volvos are SHITT!! they dont last like american trucks do they fall apart and they have NO STYLE at all boring ass fleet trucks

[4inches4u]

@jamesathen mack will

[siiwy]

wow, what a beautiful truck,, seems international combines up to date aerodynamics with a excellent look,, the sleeper part with wooden floor and walnut imitation covered shelfs,, to me this trucks looks very good,, spectacular design work

[truckzo]

funny truck, international always produce a plastic and funny trucks...

[baldymp3]

looks ok. cant say im a fan as it looks way over done to me. looks like an overgrown kids toy. i got no dramas with trucks going more aero in styling but this has tried to do too much of both i think.

[iluha9]

yeah, I agree with you. I think as of right now volvo's designers have pretty good taste comparing to other brands

[TurbinePower69]

Volvo Hasn't got a clue how to build a REAL truck......but, then again....there aren't any

"REAL Truck Drivers" out there anymore either

come to think of it......thats why you see all

those "fleet trucks" with AMT's (automated

manual transmissions)...because how to shift one themselves, is way beyond their comprehension and "ability".

[pmcollectorboy]

Volvo VT880 anyone? No contest. Volvo sucks.

[kdraper2007]

no, they run almost exclusivly COE's & it has nothing to do with milage. it has to do with the fact that the roads in europe were designed for horse drawn wagons origanally, so they have alot of rather tight intersections to navigate.

[kazper01]

with the cost of fuel constantly rising and taking a huge chunk out of an owners profit margin, the big square hoods are probably going to fall away in favour of sleek rounded lines. I personally love the look.

[TurbinePower69]

We'd get ALOT better fuel mileage, IF the damn

oil companies would quit producing such Crap

fuel (and gasoline to!!).

The Europeans have much better quality fuel

and it shows in their fuel mileage.....and

their still running alot of COE's.

...And with the latest forced emissions crap

that the tree huggers had forced on the truck

engine manufacturers, they effectively set

them back 15-20 years.

[kdraper2007]

Europe has worse problems then the U.S does with tree huggers. fuel is about the same. euro cabovers get about 4 MPG & are burdened with extra emissions.

[arcticcatsrule]

The interior of a classic truck wasn't made of that cheap plastic that you see in a pete and kenworth. But I guess things change. This truck is definatly the nicest aerodyn truck on the market from what I see here.

[docteur238]

The grill is so ugly,a classic truck is not aerodynamic...

Kenworth and Pete are a true Classic Truck...

[rogertrucker]

Check this out, Mr. Peterbilt! Maybe you would like to build something similar? Try it.

[ronthecyborg]

god, no. If Peterbilt ever built anything like that, I would lose all respect for them.

STICK WITH THE 379 PETE!!

[TurbinePower69]

Personally....I would LOVE, to see Pete & KW

do what IH did.....because they both had some

REALLY Great looking trucks way back then.

I am definitely hoping that they will both

follow IH's lead....and dig back into the past

and come up with a new "old" truck design, like the extended hood "needle nose" of the

mid/late 50's would be "killer"!!

[classicpower07]

That's a PT Cruiser on steroids.Or it looks like that Green Goblin monster truck on Maximum Overdrive. Pretty cool though.

[smokine2001]

yeah its ugly i like a straight hood with flat grill

[TwiztdTruckr25]

straight hood with a flat grill. something every wannabe hardass trucker wants to drive. yeah ill bet you like that big ass fuel bill too. i had a prostar that would get 6.5-8.4 mpgs and had great power. rather drive an international than a pos pete lor kw

[Vista0009]

Nice.

[dustydiesel]

that truck looks sweeeeeeet!

[zimchar]

Awesome!

[s172mch]

if there trying to compete with the cascadia, again, there not gonna win

i like it but the grill is ugly

[quebeker1]

The ProStar is in the same class as the Cascadia.

This one is going after the Coronado,Pete 379 and Volvo 880. Top end trucks for Owner-Ops.

[kdraper2007]

Cascadia? you'r kiddin' right? Gussied up freight shaker century.

[pilloud30]

duddddddddddddddddd thats the coolest truck international was ever bilt man crazy 5 stars
