This 1997 Chevrolet Kodiak C8500 is a used flatbed truck — sometimes referred to as a flat-deck or platform truck — designed to haul oversized, heavy, or irregularly shaped loads that require open, unenclosed bed space. Flatbed trucks of this type are workhorses across construction, agriculture, manufacturing, and general freight industries, where cargo must be loaded from the sides or overhead and secured directly to the deck. Chevrolet, a long-established American vehicle manufacturer, has produced commercial trucks and heavy-duty work vehicles for decades, serving a broad range of industrial and vocational markets.
The truck is configured as a tandem axle unit, giving it the dual rear axle setup that supports heavier payloads and improves stability and weight distribution under load. It carries a gross vehicle weight rating of 52,000 pounds, placing it firmly in the heavy-duty commercial truck class. The flatbed itself measures 20 feet in length by 96 inches in width, providing a substantial working deck area suitable for palletised goods, equipment, pipe, lumber, and similar cargo.
The truck is located in Alabama, USA, and is priced at $25,000. It is listed as truck only — the Moffett forklift visible or referenced in connection with this unit is sold separately and is not included at this price.
