1992 Kenworth 800 SET BACK AXLE Tandem Axle Dump Truck IN GREAT SHAPE well maintained.
THIS WOULD BE A GREAT YARD - OR OFF ROAD LOGGING ROAD BUILDER OR FARM TRUCK BUT WITH LITTLE WORK COULD BE FULLY ROAD WORTHY.
A LITTLE HISTORY :
In 1985, the Kenworth T600 was released by the company; in contrast to the W900, the T600 was designed with a set-back front axle and a sloped hoodline. While the latter initially proved controversial, the combination improved aerodynamics, fuel efficiency, and maneuverability.[17] Intended as an expansion of the Kenworth model line, the success of the T600 would lead to the introductions of similar designs from multiple American truck manufacturers. In 1986, the T800 was introduced, adapting the sloped hoodline and set-back front axle for a heavy-duty chassis; the shorter-hood T400 was introduced in 1988 as a regional-haul tractor.
Produced in Seattle and formally introduced to the market in 1986, the Kenworth T800 sported a set-back front axle for heavy-duty chassis and a sloped hood line like the T600. It was dubbed the “ultimate workhorse” with heightened fuel efficiency, increased payload with every truckload, and enhanced steering capabilities, allowing drivers to traverse even the most difficult terrain with relative ease.
According to Kenworth, the T800 possesses the strength and versatility to tackle whatever task a business throws at it. This statement claims to be true as it is now widely used to deliver fuel across towns, haul gravel out of a quarry, and perform other uses in the vocational markets.
