Peterbilt Motors Co. plans to roll out a Heritage edition of its Model 567 tractor in September; a 121-in. bumper to back of cab (BBC) set-forward front axle (SFFA) tractor that can be spec’d as a day cab or with a 72-in. or 80-in. sleeper.
“Peterbilt’s Model 567 Heritage elevates its classic styling with a package of unique features that will command attention on highways and job sites,” noted Darrin Siver, the OEM’s general manager, in a statement.
“The Model 567 Heritage appeals to owner-operators and premium carriers who want to reward their drivers and add distinction to their fleets,” he said. “The Heritage delivers proven productivity, uptime and value with a look and feel that is like no other truck on the road.”
Siver added that the Heritage edition is also a nod to “Peterbilt’s rich history” that began in the rugged Northwest logging industry.
Exterior features of the Model 567 Heritage include: bright bumper, grille bars, exhaust stacks, mirrors and sun visor; chromed air intake bezel and metal hood latches; polished rocker panels, quarter-fender closeout panels, fender brace and brackets, battery boxes and fuel tanks; plus special Heritage badging, uniquely numbered and mounted to the grille and sleeper (
when applicable) for the first production units of this truck.
