    Pretty cool! Must be a O/O.. They don't have much on their website.

    They have been around for a few years now... We got them running around Ontario, although they are not a dime-a-dozen around here.. Of course the CAT Rental company runs them for there floating... If you ask me I think Volvo has some design in the truck...

    It's the same as the International Lone-Star not many of them around either.... Only a few..

    I've seen a few here and there around the southeast.

    Mostly daycabs and pulling lowboys hauling equipment around.

    that pic is the first sleeper I've seen.

    Our branch just has one. The rest are Star Cars.


    They aren't a bad looking truck IMO. For service you take it to Finning or whoever your local CAT dealer is. I think they're running C-13's for engines. Not sure how they compare to the Maxforce the Binders get but the one we have seems to be relatively trouble free so far.

    Up North I have seen Frght version of a pickup on steroids quite a few times. But I better not even search on of those out or I would def. buy it.

    Yeah, that's the first sleeper version I've seen as well. Here in eastern PA there are a few tri-axle dump companies using them, and one spring water hauler who has a day cab tractor.

    They are a International cab and chassis. They are also the cat C-13 mixed with a Maxforce13. They are far from a "CAT" truck. They are even built on the exact same assembly line as international's.

    I wondered about that. Let's see the two side by side.
