89:
Peterbilt introduced the 389 at a
trucking show in 2006. The 389 replaced the 379-127". The BBC of the
389 comes in at just over 131" making it the longest hood Peterbilt has ever
offered. The 389 features new headlamps with a stylish wraparound design,
new fender front and rear trim (the rear bracket is a styling cue back to
the step on the old 351 fender). The 389 offers the same popular
configurations that 379 offered. The 389 went into production in late 2006
as 2008 models and officially replaced the 379 in March 2007. The
built-after-January 1, 2007 EPA compliant engines dictated many of the
changes to the new Peterbilt models.
- 388: The 388 replaced the 379-119".
Sporting a 123" BBC, the 388 shares the same styling as the 389. Both 388
and 389 are Peterbilts aluminium hood "traditional styled" trucks. The 388
and 389 are subtly different yet remain very true to the bloodline.
- 384: The 384 is a shorter BBC
version of the 386. The 384 went into production during mid 2007.
- 367: The 367 replaced the 357 and
the 378. Both have new 123" BBC lengths with fibreglass hoods. SBFA as well
as Heavy Haul configurations are available. The 367 retains the older "379
family" headlight options, although now mounted to the hood skin rather than
the grille surround and crown.
- 365: The 365 replaced the 357-111".
The 365 has a 115" BBC and is aimed at the construction markets.
- 330, 335 and 340: These models are
the class 6, 7 and "baby 8" units for pick up and delivery, short hauls and
vocational applications. Built in the Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec plants, the
330, 335, 340 is becoming a popular platform for snowploughs, fire
apparatus, and construction trucks.
- 325: The Model 325 is ideal for the
complete range of Class 5 applications including vehicle recovery and
towing, lease/rental, pick-up and delivery and business services such as
parcel delivery, landscaping and construction. The Model 325 began
production in mid-July 2007.
- 320: The 320 is the oldest model in
the Peterbilt line up. A direct descendant of the 300 and 310, the 320 is a
SBFA COE aimed at the refuse and concrete pumper market. This was originally
a Kenworth designed low cab-forward model but KW gave up on the truck and it
was adopted and recycled by Peterbilt Engineering.
- 220: The newest COE in the Red Oval
stable, this COE uses a DAF cab
and is targeted to the local pick up and delivery market. GVWR remains below
33,000 pounds.
- 587: The EPA SmartWay® certified
Model 587 is a replacement to the 387 aerodynamic over the road
conventional. It uses the same bare cab shell its cousin the Kenworth
T-700 with different sleeper,
roof, cab skin, interior and hood, and Peterbilt frame. The 587 is available
in two sleeper lengths: raised roof, mid roof and a daycab.
