Description

This truck was produced by Chrysler Corporation in the mid 70’s. For the USA, it was only supplied with gasoline engines. However, the South American versions were equipped with diesel engines and were very popular. We managed to find several retired fleets of these trucks in South America. We had them shipped up to the US where we had them completely restored to like new condition. You can now own one for yourself with your choice of rebuilt diesel engines, reman transmissions, and a nice choice of colors.

DISCLAIMER: The Dodge D800 is classified as a medium duty truck. For the best performance and handling, it is suggested to limit your loads to less than 30,000 pounds. However, it has been tested and proven to be able to pull heavier loads, just not as well as the bigger trucks. The heavier the load, the more careful you will need to be in the curves. Don’t let the trailer overpower you. This truck isn’t as big and heavy as the big Kenworths and Peterbilts.

To purchase one of these D800’s, go to the mod dealer section and you will find a Dodge dealer. Or, for a regular dealership, you can find this truck at any Freightliner dealer.
