摘要

Peterbilt Motors Co. has launched two new models in its on-highway lineup. The new Model 337 truck expands the company's medium-duty series for pickup and delivery, beverage and food service applications. The Model 348 is a Class 7 and 8 specialty application truck for construction, petroleum delivery, refuse and utility vocations. The Model 337 truck has a 108 in. bbc and a GVW of 26,000 to 33,000 lb., depending on the truck or tractor configuration. "Medium-duty vehicles are typically operated in congested environments," said Landon Sproull, chief engineer at Peterbilt. "It is important for sightlines, both in the ergonomic layout of the instrumentation or the exterior view of the vehicle's surroundings, to be clear and allow the driver to make good operational decisions."
