Smile International Lone Star

Just got through looking at some of the new International Lone Star trucks on Truck Paper. I can't decide if those things are damned good looking or something out of Star Wars. What do you guys think?

I saw one bobtailing last week and it was pretty darn spiffy. It still is a cornbinder so I will never own another one, but it did look nice.

I saw one at a truck stop the other day. It looks like something Spiderman would drive if he were a trucker.

Freightliners hands down. My company runs the 9400i series for the most part. They are going to spec 10 new trucks this month and they arn't sure if they are going to go with the Lonestar or the Prostar. Considering they got the Pros for our stepkid company....thats probably what they will get. For my part....I like the Lonestar.

I hate the look of the new Lonestar.

If you want a nice truck go with the 9900ix.

I just hope the lonestar is not going to replace the 9900. The 9900 is one of the nicest trucks on the road. IMHO.

They are neat looking. Would like to sit in one and see what they are like as far as visibility and comfort.
