Description
This 2025 Kenworth T280 is a built like a 33,000 lb GVW truck — but it comes in just under the CDL threshold. You get the payload and the platform of a serious single-axle hooklift without the licensing headache.
The Stellar NXT 24-M hooklift delivers 24,000 lb of lifting capacity with hydraulically adjustable hook height from 36" to 54" and handles 14–16 ft containers.
Power comes from the 360HP PACCAR PX-9 (Cummins L9) backed by an Allison 3000 RDS with live drive PTO.
Spring ride suspension. Roll-Rite DC 203 electric tarp system. Buyers 60" cam lock toolbox.
Full-size truck. Full-size capacity. No CDL required.
