They say its made by Navistar, which is the parent company of International. So, International probably makes the Powerstroke and renames it so.

My loaded crew cab 4x4 ran low 16s stock. They definitely aren't in the 17s as someone stated. A regular cab might break into the high 15s. With just a chip, they can run high 13s.
