Medium-Duty Trucks
If you want to make a great investment in a reliable and rugged vehicle, a medium-duty truck is an ideal solution. These vehicles give you a nice middle ground between light- and heavy-duty trucks and are useful in a wide range of industries.
SportTruckRV, with locations in Chandler, AZ, and Fontana, CA, is proud to be your local medium-duty truck dealer. Read on to learn more about what medium-duty trucks are and how they can benefit you in your work.
Classification
Trucks are classified by the Department of Transportation into eight different classes. The classes are determined primarily by the truck’s gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR). Medium-duty trucks are generally considered to fall into Class 4, 5 or 6 (sometimes Class 3 or Class 7 trucks can qualify, too) with a general hauling capacity between 14,000 and 26,000 pounds. This gives them a “medium” range of capability. You might find medium-duty trucks being used as dump trucks, tow trucks, cement trucks or refrigeration trucks, among other applications.
Generally speaking, you won’t need to get a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) in order to operate a medium-duty truck, but it’s important to note that this requirement may vary by state. Make sure that you investigate your state’s licensing requirements with the Department of Motor Vehicles before acquiring your own medium-duty truck.
Benefit: More Efficient Work
Owning a medium-duty truck can help you to work more efficiently without having to make multiple trips to haul everything you may need to carry from one place to another. The big frames and powerful engines on these trucks allow them to haul much heavier and bulkier loads, but they also won’t slow down traffic since they aren’t the massive behemoths that heavy-duty trucks are.
Benefit: Reduce Wear on Your Other Vehicles
Hauling heavy cargo can take a huge toll on smaller passenger cars and trucks. Do away with the expensive wear and tear on these vehicles by using a medium-duty truck for your heavy hauling needs instead. Save your car or truck for commuting and lighter tasks and put your medium-duty truck to work.
