Peterbilt CB300

Trucks and Commercial Road Vehicles

The CB300 was a low-cab cab-over-engine truck that Peterbilt released in 1970, developed in a joint venture with Kenworth and aimed almost exclusively at refuse transport. When Peterbilt opened its Canadian plant at Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec in 1975, that facility began by building the CB300, which Kenworth sold under the name Hustler. For 1978 Peterbilt replaced the CB300 with the Model 310, another low-cab COE shared with Kenworth. The line continued through the Model 320 and then the Model 520, which today carries the refuse-collection role.
