The International S series is a range of trucks that was manufactured by International Harvester (later Navistar International) from 1977 to 2001.Introduced to consolidate the medium-duty IHC Loadstar and heavy-duty IHC Fleetstar into a single product range, the S series was slotted below the Transtar and Paystar Class 8 conventionals.
The 4000 Series were medium duty trucks introduced in 1988. They used an S Series cab with a new low-profile hood that improved driver visibility and reduced air resistance. Day and crew cabs were available. They were commonly used for local delivery and vocational work but there were also semi-tractor, service, and specialty models.
At its 1977 launch, the S-series was introduced to replace the Fleetstar; lighter-duty models to replace the Loadstar were phased in during 1979.

International Harvester's first in house six-cylinder engines appeared in some of the 1926 S-series trucks, seemingly a response to market pressures rather than to any particular need for such a layout. [5] In 1928, a new heavy range of trucks (the HS-series) built around a series of engines from Hall-Scott appeared.
