With the Kenworth T170, T270 and T370, things are quicker to access, less strenuous to take apart and faster to put back together — which means less downtime and lower repair bills. The hood tilts a full 90 degrees for wide-open access to the engine and all service points. Even daily inspections have been simplified with all fluid level checks — coolant, oil, power steering and windshield washer reservoir — located in one easyto-reach place.
At the heart of these vehicles beats a fully optimized and integrated drivetrain featuring the quality and proven reliability of the PACCAR PX engine. Expect longer service intervals, increased uptime, lower operating costs and higher resale value. Ask about extended warranty options to further protect your investment.
