The Model 353 was introduced in 1973 as a construction-oriented variant of the 359, using the 359's wider grille. It replaced the 341 and the heavy-duty versions of the 351. In the same year production at the Madison, Tennessee plant was doubled so that the company could deliver 8,000 vehicles a year. When Peterbilt revised its vocational lineup in 1986, the 357 served as the successor to the 353. The article also names the 353 and the 387 as the smaller trucks that largely took over the work of the Model 383 in 1980.
