Why are you selling?

Everything in this truck works. Indeed, it has worked so well and we have lived in it full time since late June for 5 months (with only 2 weeks of break in between), We cannot imagine falling in love with the idea of living inside a vehicle with any other truck.


1. As both myself and my wife working (think a lot of video calls and laptop time) and living from this mobile home full time (for 3 months + straight at a time we are getting something slightly bigger, a long living quarter, but not by a lot as we really love the size of the tiger)
2. One of our crazy dream is to drive our truck to Hong Kong to where we are from, so we are moving onto something non-domestic so we can source parts easier in Asia when we are overseas.

It is a bittersweet decision for us as this is our very first mobile home, and we have had amazing help from the tiger community. I would love to give special thanks to Jim, Janet, John, Bob, Rick & Kathy.

We have done many preventive upgrades and maintenance since.
Price: $59,800

I prefer social distancing.
Yes, nice rig.
Don’t know much about engines, but I know the 6.0 is pretty reliable once it’s been bulletproofed.
I wonder why you can’t bulletproof a 6.4?

I think it has something to do with the emissions and it has two different turbos? I dont know much about the 6.4

6.4 is the International Maxxforce. That engine almost single handedly bankrupted International. I've read varying reports of people getting good service out of them well into the 200k range but the trucks trade for cheap if you look at current prices. Tells you a lot. I wouldn't do it.

Thanks for that. I was unaware of these issues. I was very interested in this Tiger before I read your warning.
