Peterbilt Motors Company showcased its new all-purpose vocational Model 567 and other vehicles during the 2014 CONEXPO-CON/AGG show at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
“We’re excited to show the Model 567’s extreme versatility in numerous vocational configurations at one of the industry’s premier construction events,” said Charles Cook, Peterbilt’s Marketing Manager of Vocational Products.
The Model 567 is a lightweight, highly versatile vocational vehicle that is a rugged truck and tractor capable of meeting the demands of most any jobsite. It can be ordered in 121- and 115-inch BBC lengths – with a wide variety of heavy-duty components and axle configurations for increased payloads and optimized weight distribution. It has a set-back front axle that provides excellent maneuverability and a tight turning radius, according to Cook.
The Model 567 is standard with the PACCAR MX-13 Engine with up to 500 horsepower and 1,850 lb-ft of torque and can be ordered as a day cab or with Peterbilt’s complete line-up of detachable sleepers.
