Navistar makes Tremec 10-speed transmission available for International ProStar

Sep 24, 2014

Navistar announced this week it will offer the Tremec 10-speed manual transmission in its International ProStar models equipped with the company’s 13-liter engine. Tremec offers a wide range of high torque-to-weight ratios designed for weight sensitive over-the-road and city applications, Navistar says. The pairing will also maximize payload for applications such as bulk haul, the company says.

Navistar already offers Tremec transmissions as an option in its ProStar with Cummins ISX 15.

Owner-operator Raiko Graveran might be the 'nicest dude in all of trucking,' a version of which has been said by more than one truck showgoer who's found him and his 1995 Freightliner FLD 120 parked up. Here he's showing off fairly recent wins at the Old Town Rig Down event in Nacogdoches, Texas. Look for Graveran out at the Stars, Stripes and White Lines event this week in Atlanta.

RGT Transport owner Graveran came to the United States in '08 on a raft from Cuba, ultimately able to gain legal permanent resident status with the immigration policy of the time. Today, he's the proud owner of a multi-award-winning custom '95 FLD flattop that cuts a unique picture on the show circuit.
