PETERBILT NEWS
18 l FIRST CLASSCLASS
Peterbilt's low-cab for-
ward Model 320 reached
record production in 2014
with more than 1,600 trucks
built, a 12 percent year-
over-year increase, Peterbilt
Motors Company recently
announced.
The specialty vehicle – used
primarily in refuse opera-
tions and concrete pumper
applications – was recently
introduced with an entirely
new interior. A right-hand,
stand-up cab configuration
was announced late last year.
Additionally, the company
said it would introduce a
dual-steer configuration later
this year.
"The Model 320 has
been a proven performer
for many years and through
many harsh operating envi-
ronments. Since 2000 we've
seen large market share
gains for the Model 320,"
says Robert Woodall,
Peterbilt Assistant
General Manager of
Sales and Marketing.
"We anticipate even
larger gains ahead as
customer reception of
the new Model 320
is outstanding, pro-
viding superior fit and
finish and numerous
enhancements that
improve operator
comfort, productivity
and safety."
Among its many
new features are a
new instrumentation panel
with LED backlit gauges;
Peterbilt Driver Information
Display that provides real-
time communication of vehi-
cle performance and diag-
nostics; easy-to-reach instru-
mentation; and increased
visibility, including rear cab
corner windows.

HEAVY-DUTY WITHOUT THE HEAVY.
Unmatched strength at an unbeatable weight. We shed five
pounds of overall weight from our 22.5" x 8.25" wheels so each
one is only 40 pounds. Add it up and you save nearly another
100 pounds per rig. That's a nice lift to your bottom line.
