This is a great shot. Does it have an emblem anywhere on the back that you could have included in the picture to show the manufacturer of the truck?

Hmmm... Just under where it says international (Dad used to have one on the farm!) there is a bit of (?) wood hanging out?... Do you have a chance to take it again with that bit of wood moved?.. Maybe?.. Love the truck, might be a bit newer than dads was. I quite like P7220238 too...

Thanks for the feedback. It's an International, Crazzy88ss. I will have to get out there this week sometime to try and get the piece of wood out. My luck the tailgate will fall off! I'll give her a shot, though.

Just clone the piece of wood out! The tailgate will fall off, pinning your leg and your cell phone will fall just beyond your reach. All of this happens while you're trying to protect your camera!!!! LOL

BTW, Great picture

mrs_bernards, Welcome

The missing part may be context; I get the weeds and a hill in the background, but is the truck near a barn, in a creekbed, behind your house? Also taillight, front fender and bottom of tire are missing. That's a lot of crop.
