Peterbilt Motors Company announced it will be unveiling a major new product configuration ideal for concrete contractors and other weight-conscious applications during the World of Concrete show in Las Vegas, Feb. 2-6.
“Peterbilt’s Model 567 has been in production for just over a year and it’s already far surpassing our high expectations for it,” said Charles Cook, Peterbilt Marketing Manager for Vocational Products. “It’s helping customers across a wide range of applications achieve new levels of productivity. We’re pleased to expand its versatility and utility ever further with a new configuration designed with mixer and other weight-sensitive applications in mind.”
