- Multiple horsepower and torque ratings
- Five-piece Metton hood with replaceable bolt-on fenders

T880 Configurations for Vocational Applications
A Kenworth T880 can be specified for several types of work:
- Dump truck: Select axle, suspension, and powertrain components based on payload, terrain, and unloading conditions.
- Concrete mixer: Account for weight distribution, bridge requirements, turning needs, and frequent stop-start operation.
- Tanker truck: Match the chassis to tank size, loaded weight, route conditions, and stability requirements.
- Heavy hauler: Evaluate GCWR, engine torque, cooling capacity, gearing, and axle ratings.
- Refuse truck: Consider body integration, visibility, and repeated collection cycles.
- Log truck: Prioritize traction, braking, axle capacity, and performance on steep or unpaved routes.
Buyers can review our available vocational trucks for sale or search current log truck inventory, along with other options.
Explore the Current T880 Lineup
The T880 remains available as Kenworth’s primary heavy-duty vocational platform. The lineup now also includes the T880S Signature Edition, giving buyers another option for applications that require a set-forward front axle and updated hood configuration.
With the T800 retired from the new-truck lineup, many operators can transition to a purpose-built T880. However, replacing a T800 is not simply a matter of selecting the closest truck on the lot. Body dimensions, axle loading, payload, terrain, and duty cycle should all guide the new specification.
