MDT= Medium Duty Trucks I believe this is what you are looking for.


In the trucking industry, these trucks are called "medium duty". Try searching that, and you should come up with what you are looking for.

Or you could try Chevy 6500, International 4700, Kenworth T-300, Freightliner FL60, and so on.

What do they call the smaller (and perhaps custom made) Freightliners, Peterbilt, etc. that are used to pull 20,000 - 30,000 lb. loads?
I've been trying to Google these fellas and can't get past full-sized tractors or conventional gas and diesel pickups.

Thanks in advance. Dick

Here are some links that might answer your question. The M2 from Freightliner replaced the old FL series trucks. The new M2 can be specked out as a class 4 all the way up to and including a class 8 truck.

Here is a link to the M2 100 and M2 106

Here is a link to the larger M2 112
