Vehicle ResearchPhotos 33April 16, 2021

Vocational work trucks are the workhorses of the industry. Heavy-duty trucks are often thought of as over-the-road haulers but they have a big place in the vocational market.

From dump trucks to concrete mixers, refuse trucks to road maintenance, the bigger jobs require bigger trucks and the work truck automakers have no shortage of available options.

Many of today’s work truck fleets include a mix of options, from light- to medium- to heavy-duty and are  looking for safety features and choices for powertrain and transmissions.

Take a look at today’s heavy-duty vocational truck offerings and all of the various vocations they are ready to support.
