Congrats on your new ride!
If it was shifting down to 7th gear let it do it. By putting it in 8th manual your preventing it from downshifting when it needs to, and you can easily lug the engine which is not good on a new truck. As an example I had my cruise set to 65 in manual 8th and she...
You have to be careful with those internet available numbers - dealers are Morons and they all show generic images of trucks they don’t have, or better yet, they get one truck and keep it listed on the sites. Possibly the worst at this crap is motorcycles. When I was looking for a BMW sport...
It's definitely for a guy who wants a project. These must have sold for $150-200K new. Never had any luck with Cat truck engines they have always been prone with problems. In fact they no longer make truck engines.
Here's a link showing some of these trucks converted:

Hey Guys - Just though I would share this link with you guys. If you're looking for a camper while you're out in the woods, this Military 4x4 could be a great piece to tow your jeep and have a place to hang your hat.
Word is the military sold off around a 100 of these vehicles. They all have...
Been watching a lot of rock work on youtube catching up. There is a clear division between the guys that know their stuff and the other 85-90% of which are just clowns out there with Temporary tags on new trucks tearing stuff up!
LOL I'd bet anything he got himself a free bumper - these guys are prostitutes!
Funny you should mention it but I'm looking for a nice bumper with some Led's and winch - something like this!
The days of a good independent review are few! Between the manufacture writers, bloggers and the You-Tubers all trying to seek an identity of being an expert and hits, it's really difficult to find independent information you can trust. They all seem to be like puppets and use all the same cute...
Thanks for all the great reply's guys, I love sharing these trucks. The difference between the CTX and MXT is the CTX is a larger truck, which for the most part, did not make a very good looking pickup like the MXT. Big trucks have always been my hobby, regretfully I no longer own any big...
Jeep On Major Steroids? - Mike Mas
Hey guys - I though you might enjoy a few images of my 4x4 International MXT. In many respects my Gladiator is very similar in looks. The MXT was designed and built only one year in 2008. International offered it in two versions, a civilian model and a...
That's what I got off $1,000 not a penny more - then of course they have to add all the other crap on. When they tack on the 7% tax you begin to ask yourself what the hell am I doing here?
