Kenworth Slims its T680 Mid-Roof Sleeper Down to 15,000 Pounds
Using a vehicle that is lightweight is not unimportant for many over-the-road operators -- particularly in regional draw uses and LTL. To address that need, Kenworth Truck Co. has created a lightweight shape for the Kenworth T680 52-inch mid-roof sleeper that's accessible now. "The favorable answer illustrated that there is an absolute place in the marketplace for such a lightweight chassis configuration." Essential weight-reducing parts are the 12.9-liter Paccar MX-13 engine, the Eaton Fuller Advantage show transmission, Kenworth's AG380 suspensor, MX optimized hood (119-inch BBC), 6*2 drive axle, back broad-base single tires, aluminum back wheels, air disc brakes and an aluminum fifth wheel. "These weight-savings attributes for the T680 52-inch mid-roof sleeper offer a great chance for truck buyers to spec light and increase payload, while using a truck with exceptional motorist relaxation in the 2.1-meter broad cab and sleeper," said VanVoorhis.
