Peterbilt 357

Trucks and Commercial Road Vehicles

The Model 357 was a Peterbilt vocational truck introduced in 1986 as the successor to the Model 353. It arrived in the same year as the Model 378, which replaced the 348/349, when Peterbilt began a sweeping revision of its company and product line, ended assembly at Newark, California and started consolidating production in Denton, Texas. In 2002, to meet increased demand, the 357 was temporarily added to production at the Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec plant. The Models 365 and 367 introduced in 2006 succeeded the 357 and 378.
