    Looking at buying a 92 Internationa! HELP!!

    We have a 1988 IH DT466 18ton boomtruck and it’s like a damn snail going up hills, all I’m hoping is that trucks needing a tune up badly and this 92 will preform better because if not the GMC will come out as pulling better and I should have kept it if that’s the case haha
