The International Extreme Truck Series (often identified by the acronym XT) is a range of pickup trucks produced by Navistar International from 2004 to 2008. Two vehicles were based on the International medium-duty truck range, while another was derived from a military tactical vehicle produced by Navistar. All of the XT-Series trucks were produced in Garland, Texas. The first vehicle marketed by International to consumers since the discontinuation of the Scout in 1980, the XT trucks marked the return of International to pickup truck production since the discontinuation of the 100-series pickups in 1975. In response to lower than expected sales, Navistar discontinued production of the XT-Series in 2008.〔(Cars.com 2005 Auto Shows Report: 2006 International RXT )〕〔(Popular Mechanics-Jay Leno's Garage-A Tonka Toy comes to life )〕〔(BIG At about twice a Hummer's weight, the Xtreme is just plain - The Boston Globe )〕 ==CXT (Commercial Extreme Truck)== The CXT/Commercial Extreme Truck was introduced in September 2004. Based on the International 7300 chassis (now known as the Workstar), it was available in a two-door extended cab or four-door crew-cab bodystyle. All CXTs were equipped with permanent four-wheel drive with a Meritor MTC 4208 two-speed transfer case. To convert the chassis to a pickup truck, Navistar purchased pickup beds from Ford Motor Company; the CXT used the bed of the dual-rear wheel F-350 Super Duty. As an option, the CXT is equipped with a hydraulic bed lift. In contrast to a standard medium-duty International truck geared towards vocational customers, the CXT featured a number of luxury options. Materials for seats and other upholstery items included leather and ostrich skin. For the rear-seat passengers, options also included a DVD player and satellite radio.〔 For the powertrain, International equipped the CXT with a 220 hp version of its 7.6L DT 466 inline-6 diesel engine and a 5-speed Allison 2500HD automatic transmission. The CXT has a towing capacity of 20 tons. As with other 7300 models, the CXT included air brakes. At its introduction, the CXT was the largest production pickup truck sold in North America (as of 2015, it still is). Although not the longest, it was the tallest (at 108 inches to the top of the cab) and the heaviest. At a curb weight of , a CXT weighs nearly twice as much as a Hummer H1〔〔(2005 International CXT - Four Wheeler )〕 and nearly triple as much a 2004 Ford F-150. Its GVWR is 〔 was carefully chosen; if it was two pounds higher, a CXT could not be driven without a CDL. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「International XT」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
