"The CXT is built on the same 20-ton hauler platform that International uses for dumptrucks and other severe-service vehicles." 
"The 4wd CXT may not beat anyone from a stoplight, but there's not much that can stop it, either."
"International intends to build only about five dozen CXTs, primarily for business owners who want a truck that not only works for them but also offers a bodacious presence." 
"If you're thinking of buying one for whatever reason, expect to part with anywhere between $95,000 and about $110,000. And you'd better have the right driver's license endorsp00get to drive a heavy rig."

Next year expect the SUV version, it'll let the Soccer Mom take their kids ENTIRE team, all their parents, and the better part of the opposing team to go get pizza after a game.

Yeah, I've seen this around, and despise it. As if the Hummer wasn't enough of a pointless overkill.

How else will the people who can afford to be safe be safter than others?
