LOUISVILLE, KY - Peterbilt Motors Company announced the immediate availability of its successful Extended Day Cab feature for its complete lineup of medium-duty vehicles. Customers now have the option to expand the length of their day cab by an additional 10 inches and receive nearly 6 inches of added head room.

“Peterbilt’s Extended Day Cab has been very popular since its launch last year, proving ideal for customers who require a larger operating environment,” said Bill Kozek, Peterbilt General Manager and PACCAR Vice President. “With the large standard rear window, the extended cab also provides superb visibility, making it optimal for both Pickup & Delivery and Vocational applications.”

The extended day cab is designed to increase the driver’s comfort and productivity as both the driver and passenger seat recline is doubled to 23 degrees and there is four inches of added space between the steering wheel and the seat. In addition, four cubic feet of built-in rear wall storage compartments have been added for equipment or paperwork.
