I'm with you.I have driven IH trucks and sure don't want to degrade my SD with an IH emblem

 

Was it this truck?

 

Then you must know the knick-name for 'em............

 

Yep either Binders or corn binders

 

thirteen-letter chit spreader?

 

that looks sick. its not that im degrading my ford, but way i see it without that awsome engine international put out, that blue oval wouldent get down the road let alone bust up on all the chevs and dodges plus i like to be diffrent and stand out so there ya go. i do my own thing not wat everyone else does

 

I am going to have to agree with Joe here I am a Ford fanatic. I bought my truck because it's a Ford not because it had an International engine if they had a different diesel engine in it I would have still bought it becuase I am a Ford man........

 

i can see where yall is comeing from i love fords to but just saying i want sumthing diffrent than what everyone else has. im keeping the tailgate oval the same so im not gettng rid of all my ford stuff. just wana be diffrent thats all. didn want this to get into an argument over ford and international

 

Ha Ha no argument just a friendly descussion. It is to each his own it's your truck and you should do what works for you with it.

 

i can understand that and im not the only one who thinks this way.....

"While the diamonds on the front and rear are sourced from the International parts bin, the "T 444E" emblems are the result of an Internet collaboration among Super Duty fans. Many Power Strokers wanted to represent the company that builds the engine (like the Cummins badge found on Dodge Rams).." "... paying homage to the powerplant under the hood..." ouda diesel power mag

 

The site you posted for the grille says in big red letters, "replaces your original grille" is this the same grill you guys bought? I dont mind cuttin my grille ive done one of these on a ranger I just want to know if its the whole thing or just an insert? Thanks in advance. Thats a heck of a price too.

 

It is an insert, you have to cut your grille. But most on the road are an insert since the true billet are very pricey.

 

I am not sure what they are trying to get at in that statement, but I source the T444E from International as well since it comes on there trucks.

 

Bringing up a really old thread but I thought I could answer the question that was left hanging for a year now.

The one on the front grill was from International (IH part # 3550916C1) and the T444E labels on the doors were from an outside source other than International. The article goes on about the use of the IH branding to show IH pride by letting everyone know what’s under the hood. Just like that big C on the Dodge. And hence the name of the article and play on words, OuterNational. The Diesel Power article name “OuterNational” was referring to the outward branding of International logos on a Ford. Something that was kind of new back then.
