- Well-proven Isuzu diesel truck engine vs. new International sourced V6 diesel that has no service history in any vehicle
- Longer diesel engine warranty, 3 years/unlimited miles vs. 3 years/150,000 miles
- Longer base warranty, 3 years/unlimited miles vs. 2 years/unlimited miles for Ford LCF and International CF
- Wider door opening for easy entry and exit (85 degree vs. 65 degree)
- Durable tricot breathable woven seat material is comfortable and long lasting (cloth seat standard on Ford and International, with optional vinyl)
- Larger cab contributes to driver and passenger comfort. Ford/International cab has 5-in. shorter BBC and a narrower cab
- Wider shoulder room in new cab (72 in. vs. 66 in.) adds to comfort when carrying three passengers
- LCF has restricted room around brake and throttle pedal, which interferes with driving safety
- Two-way roof vent adds comfort on hot days (not available on Ford LCF or International CF)
- Fold-down passenger's seat and center seat with tray standard, providing additional convenience (Ford and International have folding center seat only)
- Standard daytime running lamps contribute to safety. Optional on Ford LCF and International CF
- 6-speed Aisin automatic transmission vs. 5-speed Ford automatic transmission, for durability and performance
- 9-inch-longer maximum wheelbase can maintain proper weight balance with heavier aft body payloads
- Standard engine exhaust brake with diesel engine (not available on Ford or International)
- Larger outside mirrors (16-inches tall vs. 11.5 inches) contributes to driver's visibility and safety
- Greater cab tilt (45 degree vs. 40 degree) provides additional room when servicing vehicle, for faster, easier service
- Engine shut-down system, with or without engine hour meter, contributes to reduced operating costs (not available on Ford or International)
- Overhead cam engine design reduces reciprocating mass for engine efficiency and enables full cylinder water jackets for long-term engine durability
- Precision machined fit dry cylinder liners on Isuzu diesel engine allow efficient engine rebuilding for extreme mileage customers. International engine is a parent bore design
