Heavy Duty Truck Repair In San Bernardino, CA

What is considered a heavy-duty truck?

Driving down the roads of Riverside County, CA, San Bernardino County, CA, Orange County, CA, Los Angeles County, CA, and Imperial County, CA, you have likely seen many heavy-duty trucks driving alongside you. Any vehicle that weighs more than 26,001 pounds is considered a heavy-duty truck. Some examples of heavy-duty trucks include mobile cranes, city transit buses, tractors designed to pull trailers, refuse trucks, cement mixers, and dry vans. Heavy-duty trucks are generally divided into three categories:

• Class 7: 26,001 to 33,000 pounds (ex. garbage collection vehicles, livestock transports)
• Class 8: 33,001 pounds or heavier (ex. 18-wheelers, sleeper cabs, dump trucks, tractor-trailers)
• Class 9: Vehicles that weigh more than 60,000 pounds (super heavy/special duty truck) 

Many heavy-duty trucks have large engines that run on diesel as well as have enhanced transmissions because these trucks are designed to tow large loads. Heavy-duty trucks are also seen on job sites, where they are required to carry large construction materials. They have a towing capacity of over 20,000 pounds and offer payload capacities of over 6,500 pounds - enough to haul pretty much anything that can fit in the truck's bed.
