The Peterbilt 359 is an American truck that is considered an icon of the American automotive industry. Most often, the Caterpillar engine with a capacity of 400 HP and a capacity of 14.6 liters was used as the power unit, which allowed to reach a top speed of 150 km / h. The vehicle can also tow a load with a maximum weight of up to 60 tons. It is worth adding that the average fuel consumption per 100 km varies from 35 to 40 liters. The 359 model is one of the most recognizable vehicles of the Peterbilt Motors Company, which was founded in 1939 and from the very beginning of its existence has been famous for creating trucks with high reliability, mechanical strength and technically refined. These features also applied to the 359 model, which was produced in the years 1967-1987 and gained great popularity as a result of participating in several famous films from the 70s and 80s of the twentieth century. As a curiosity, it is worth adding that Peterbilt plants often agreed that individual individual customers could arrange, for example, the interior of the passenger compartment, which made many of these cars unique and can significantly differ from each other.
