So, I’ve been messing around with trucks lately, and let me tell you, it’s been a wild ride. I wanted to get my hands on a new international pickup truck, and boy, did I go down a rabbit hole.
First off, I started looking around online, just to get an idea of what’s out there, you know? Prices were all over the place. I saw some brand new 2024 International CV 4X4 models going for about $83,500. Then there were others, like the 2024 International CV, with a 6.6L Turbo Diesel engine, listed around $77,900. It seemed like a decent starting point, but I wasn’t about to jump in without doing my homework.
I heard from somewhere that West Virginia might be the cheapest state to buy a truck from a dealer. Don’t know how true that is, but it got me thinking about maybe taking a road trip. But then I started digging into the prices of these International semi-trucks. We’re talking $160,000 to $230,000 for a new one. Used? You might snag one for around $100, but I don’t know, seems too good to be true.
- Looked up new International CV 4X4 prices online.
- Checked out prices for the 2024 International CV model.
- Considered the idea of buying from West Virginia.
- Got shocked by the prices of new International semi-trucks.
- Wondered about the super low prices for used semi-trucks.
Then I stumbled upon some general info about semi-truck prices. Apparently, they can range from $70,000 to $150,000, sometimes even more. And these International trucks? They start at $160k and can go up to $550k! For a used one, it’s like a hundred to two thousand bucks. It’s all a bit much to take in, honestly.
The Real Deal
After all that searching and comparing, I finally decided to visit a local dealership. I talked to the salesperson, test-drove a couple of models, and tried to negotiate a bit. It was exhausting. I think I spent a whole day there, just going back and forth. I had to call the wife up to remind her what color she want and the kids were fighting over what new feature to include. This was getting hard.
In the end, I managed to snag a pretty good deal on a new international pickup truck. It wasn’t easy, and it took a lot of time and effort, but I’m happy with what I got. So, that’s my story of diving into the world of international pickup trucks. It’s been a journey, and I’m still figuring things out as I go. But hey, that’s life, right?
