2008 International MXT XR025

Description

Do you take the idea of blazing your own trail literally? Do you want Hummers to truly look up to you? Do you want to go right from hunt camp to the red carpet? Do you want friends to fight over who gets to ride with you during the apocalypse? This 2008 International MXT XR025 is the loaded, powerful, and rugged machine that can do all of that... and more.

The XT series of trucks brought commercial-grade fun to the pickup world, and if you're familiar with the line, you know the MXT is often the most desirable. It arguably has the best look with a bespoke form-fitting truck bed and widely flared fenders to accommodate the special 4x4 chassis. This has all the best work-ready features, like the solid 8-lug 20-inch wheels, diamond plate truck bed, steel full running boards, back up camera, and steel tow hook front & rear. And the proper trailer hitch large towing mirrors, and trailer brake control will make everyone else's boat look like a dingy compared to what you can haul. And while all this looks rugged, this example continues to look quite good. The red paint continues to have a nice shine, especially for a vehicle that doesn't fit in most garages. The clean look of the body panels and bright side metal suggests this has not done much (if any) off-road duty. So you can love it for just cruising, too. After all, it's the kind of memorable machine that makes you a celebrity just for rolling through town in it.

The idea of owning a truck like this is all about taking everything to the next level, and that includes the interior. So while you can get a captain's chair in some of the best custom trucks, International is the kind of company that really knows how to make a bucket seat feel long-haul comfortable. They also know the importance of keeping everything within easy reach, including desirable features like power windows, power locks, power mirrors, and cold-blowing air conditioning. Plus, your stereo has been upgraded to a touchscreen infotainment system with Bluetooth. The rear seats are part of this attitude of extras with the kind of extra legroom you don't get on most extended cab pickups. And while some of the better ones have TV screens for a DVD player, this one has a TracVision satellite TV receiver on the roof. So this MXT can comfortably own the road on trips near or far.

The heart of what makes this so absolutely useful is the 6.0-liter Navistar DT motor. This is a hardy turbodiesel powerhouse used for everything from school buses to military transport, and so you know it can get done whatever job you need, too. And don't forget, this is in the era before you need to add DEF fluid. This was built with terrific ground clearance, good suspension travel, and a robust 4x4 system all learned from International's defense subsidiary. But as much as this is industrial/military grade, it's also meant to be a genuine usable vehicle for everyday roads. So the power steering is done to make the MXT's size quite manageable, the five-speed automatic transmission smoothly gets you into overdrive cursing, and the four-wheel hydraulic power disc brakes give you confident stopping power.

When you want a modern and useful truck that can stand above everyone else - literally - this International MXT is the rare and rugged 4x4 that can do it. Call today!!!
