International Truck and Engine, the primary operating subsidiary of Navistar International, manufactures heavy-duty trucks bearing the International brand name. In addition to hauling freight, uses for the company's heavy-duty trucks range from emergency vehicles to trash trucks. International Truck and Engine also makes mid-range diesel engines and the V-8 diesel engine for Ford's Power Stroke pickup. Navistar controls much of the medium truck market, but only about 20 percent of the heavy truck market. Medium trucks are the delivery trucks found on side streets around town, while the heavy trucks are the semitrailers on the highways. It also controls much of the school bus chassis market. Navistar and the International brand is one of the market leaders for sales of school busses.
