Since being founded in 1939 Peterbilt has ranked as a leading manufacturer of high quality heavy-duty trucks in the USA. Since then the name Peterbilt has become synonymous with reliability and durability. Thus even today, the adaptable, robust 359 Conventional is still being used in the USA, more than 20 years after first rolling off the assembly line. Also the drivers of Bill Signs Trucking, headquartered in Lakeside, California, use the well-known "King of the Road" daily. BST deploys the 359 Conventional tractor, which was correspondingly equipped for this task, for extended low-bed heavy haul trailers. Wheelbases specifically adapted to handle the transportation of heavier payloads, broad tyres on the front axle and a carefully tuned 15-speed Fuller gearbox are just some of the distinguishing features of the number 402 truck with the distinct, artistically designed draft horses adorning the sides of the hood. This gem of Bill Signs Trucking, that also attracts attention on account of its many chrome parts, is powered by an 800 hp (590 kW) Cummins diesel engine.
