does anyone even make a 24 inch sleeper?:7

cat, yes that is the 7400. i dont know if this is considered a class 8 truck or not, it has the warranty of a class 8 (5years 500,000 miles)but wether or not my carrier considers it a class 8 (with an extended life period) remains to be seen. DD

thanks for the compliments guys. dreamer,those are actual alluminum wheels i just havent got the hub covers for them yet. also these are made by accuride not alcoa.i think the accuride has a a better appearance than the alcoa.(the reason i say that is because by mistake there is one alcoa on the...

rich. the empty weight of my truck is 22,520# with the fuel tanks half full. DD

rich, i will advise you of the empty weight of the truck when i get it in the next day or so. we had a tag axle installed after talking with dan and learning that the international 7400 is a heavier truck and would probably not be able to scale a 13,000 lb payload legally. so i would say that...

glad you brought this up lawrence. i rated jeff jensen the other day on the great article he did on the international 7400. the problem is i ended up giving him a nuetral rating instead of the positive rating that i intended. i was just wondering if you could change it for me,seeing as how you...
