    Any opinions on International Lonestars? Comfort, reliability, any mechanical issues, etc.?

    Keep an eye on your intake pipes between the air filters and the turbo.

    I have seen a few where the pipe connections between the air filter housings and the pipes keep coming apart so the engine is sucking dirty air.

    I have seen a couple of trucks that needed rebuilds due to dusted engines!
