kscarbel2 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Fleet Owner / January 29, 2015Peterbilt Motors Co. has announced that its low-cab forward Model 320 reached record production in 2014 with more than 1,600 trucks built—which amounts to a 12% year-over-year increase. The specialty vehicle – used primarily in refuse operations and concrete-pumper applications – was recently introduced with an entirely new interior. A right-hand, stand-up cab configuration was announced late last year as well. 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 environments. Since 2000 we’ve seen large market share gains for the Model 320,” said Robert Woodall, Peterbilt assistant gm - sales and marketing.“We anticipate even larger gains ahead as customer reception of the new Model 320 is outstanding, providing superior fit and finish and numerous enhancements that improve operator comfort, productivity and safety,” he added..

kscarbel2 Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 FYI: The 320 is the only Peterbilt model not produced in Denton, Texas. Rather, it is built at Paccar's Mexicali, Mexico plant alongside Kenworth models. The company says the 320's COE configuration isn't compatible with Denton's production line.
