Of all the defunct brands that are no longer around, I mourn the loss of International Harvester the most. It’s hard not to respect the tough, enduring, and trustworthy spirit that was a key part of nearly every single International Harvester product. I would have loved to be one of the test drivers shown back in the day.
We used R190 truck tractors in the 1950s and 1960s. They were good trucks for the time. They were heavy duty built and the Red Diamond 450 engines had plenty of torque. But I’m glad we don’t have to use them anymore. They were about the hottest thing you could drive in the Summer.

I have 4 9900ix with cats. One of the easiest trucks to work on. Heavy trucks
@@Geardrive427-ip8vj International Harvester and the International Navistar brand are not the same thing.
So, this was made in the late 1940s.
Buenas esos años los asían para durar

Real workhorses
If only manufacturers still tested the product like this before releasing for purchase...
The mirrors crack me up
Fueron los mejores ...la única compañía industrial que produjo herramientas de trabajo para todos los campos incluso para la guerra
I wish IH was still around. I can't put my finger on it, but I've always liked "cornbinders."
