Updated Peterbilt 320 goes to streets

Peterbilt Motors Company introduces a range of new features for the popular Model 320, providing customers improved maneuverability, increased vehicle utility and enhanced driver comfort.

The Model 320 is available with the two new steering gear options for enhancing maneuverability. The Sheppard HD94 offers front axle ratings up to 12,000 pounds, and the Sheppard SD110 offers front axle ratings up to 20,000 pounds. Both steering gear options offer ten percent wheel cut improvement, decreased turning radius and enhanced serviceability.
