    Is that the performance or the efficiency version?

    Our company just bought a bunch of 2019 Internationals. Shop guy says they are great. We are dumping Volvo and Freightliner. Hate to see that.

    I drive a 2017 LT , X15 for an engine. Has 209,xxx miles with no problems. Drives ok, not in love with it but don't hate it either. It's limited to 62mph and it's turned down hp wise, that could be better but isn't the trucks fault. Setup like that with auto shift 10 speed it gets 7.5 to 8.5mpg.

    A 2017 would have an ISX engine. The X15 didn't go into production until 2018 model year.

    Does it rattle when it moves? :)
    Oh.... Your icon picture is adorable.
    Seriously... wondering if the suspension will allow it to at least move fast downhill.
    I drove a straight truck Int. It was just plain designed to not work hard. Get squirrely on me if I tried to let it roll fast downhill.
    To be fair. Also drove the old boxy cab Int. Was funnest truck I ever drove. Handled best of any straight truck I ever drove. It was dirty mean and nasty. Like going to Disneyland everyday for work. Just plain fun.

    It's a two axle truck, It does sometimes feel squirrely when the automated transmission goes into nutrual coasting downhill. But that is compounded I believe from hauling doubles around. I said 19' in my previous post but I actually believe it's a 18' with the x15 efficiency Cummins.
