    According to jack, alot of companies including superior are currently in a lawsuit with international. I just cant understand why we kept buying that junk for years knowing how they were.

    For what its worth the pictures of trucks on the Superior Carriers web page do not include any pictures of Prostars. It's 2 Macks and a Pete. That is a recent change. I guess we just need to tear up the ones that are left. Get busy boys :)

    This is very true. I would be fine with them if it had a Cummins in it and just a tad more storage. The Pro Star rides really smooth.

    I did 3 days worth of local work in a spare truck this week. Tuesday and Thursday I loaded and delivered loads to Raeford NC. Its only about 200 miles round trip but was drop and hook on the delivery end. I got about 3 hours load delay on the first one due to the plant not having it ready in a spotted tank.

    Wednesday was a long day. I spotted and moved a bunch of trailers and delivered one load. Burned up all of my 14 paid hourly.

    My truck finally got pulled into the International dealership today to be looked at. I am leaving in the morning for a long weekend in N Myrtle Beach. Hopefully it will be fixed by Tuesday when I get back

    I imagine larger companies have some sort of contract in place stating they will buy x number of trucks at a discounted price. That's the only reason I can figure companies continue to buy the trucks even after problems become well known.

    Pretty nice new Pete on the yard. Finally some full size trucks without a bed right up against the seats. Mechanic told me he heard all Internationals will be gone by 2018
