What Are Heavy-Duty Trucks?
You have lots of different options to pick from when it comes to your next truck, so what really makes a heavy-duty model stand out? In order to qualify as a heavy-duty truck, a vehicle must have a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of over 26,000 lbs. These types of vehicles are typically used for function and may include city busses, cement mixers, and tractors.
