SPECIFICATION PLANNING
SPECIFICATIONS TO INVESTIGATE
Compare sleeper size, storage, bunk climate, wheelbase and weight for the time spent away.
Check trailer clearance, manoeuvrability, fuel and equipment packaging, fifth-wheel travel and axle loading for dry van work.
Research the installed engine generation, rating, hours, idle time, duty cycle and emissions history. 160,000 annual kilometres makes documented maintenance and operating-cost assumptions especially relevant.
Match exact transmission ratios and axle gearing with tire revolutions, mixed terrain, operating speed and driver or fleet requirements.
Confirm axle ratings, suspension, cooling and fuel capacity against the actual load and routes.
Balance route range and fuelling access against tare weight, annual kilometres and realistic L/100 km assumptions.
Confirm final suitability. Verify the actual truck build, intended work, legal requirements and professional/operator requirements before purchase.
