With every new generation the Peterbuilt truck became more sophisticated and more efficient but it was careful to preserve it’s classic American look. So, from the outside, a brand new Peterbuilt looks very much the same as one which rolled out of the assembly lines in the 1950s. This policy which is shared by the other big name in trucks, Kenworth, makes their machines an emblem of the solid American made vehicle.

Rien ne ressemble plus à un Peterbuilt qu’un autre Peterbuilt et, pour dire vrai, rien ne ressemble plus à un Kenworth qu’un Peterbuilt. La raison est simple, ces deux compagnies partagent la même philosophie. Un camion américain doit ressembler à un camion américain. Un Kenworth ou Peterbuilt flambant neuf avec toutes les dernières améliorations de la marque ressemblera toujours à son ancètre de 1950.
