This Kenworth T480 is a fuel tanker truck — sometimes referred to as a petroleum tanker or fuel delivery truck — built for the commercial transport and dispensing of refined fuel products. Kenworth is a well-established American manufacturer of heavy-duty commercial trucks, serving industries including fuel distribution, construction, logistics, and municipal operations. This example is a 2027 model listed in used condition and located in Michigan, USA, built to a Q2 production schedule as a Level 2 specification unit.
Power comes from a Paccar PX-9 engine producing 350 horsepower at 1,750 RPM and 1,050 lb-ft of torque at 1,200 RPM, paired with an Allison 3000 RDS-P automatic transmission — a heavy-duty, six-speed automatic well suited to the stop-and-go demands of fuel delivery routes.
The tank is a new 4,500-gallon DOT406 Bucket Box unit divided into four compartments with full double-bulkhead construction between each section. The compartment breakdown is 1,500 gallons, 1,000 gallons, 1,000 gallons, and 1,000 gallons, allowing the truck to carry multiple product grades simultaneously. Bottom loading is handled by a Civacon air-operated manifold mounted 38 inches off the ground for convenient access, and the system includes purge adapters and suction lines. A FloTech overfill protection system is fitted, along with vapor recovery capability.
The delivery system is a dual-delivery configuration housed in a full rear Bucket Box delivery area. It is equipped with two LCR iQ electronic registers and two TCS 2-inch meters rated at 150 GPM capacity each, supporting accurate and efficient product dispensing. Two Blackmer 2.5-inch product pumps handle fuel transfer, and the system offers high and low flow modes. Two Hannay hose reels are installed: the diesel side carries 150 feet of 1.25-inch hose, and the gasoline side carries 100 feet of the same diameter. A third, center-mount high-speed hose reel is included as part of the optional third reel build, fitted with 50 feet of 1.5-inch hose and a Super Scully nozzle.
Additional operational features include a rearview camera, high idle, and PTO controls located in the rear delivery area for operator convenience. Storage and organization are addressed through a 60-inch bolt-on driver's side cabinet, a driver's side hose tube, and a weld-on curbside cabinet enclosing the manifold.
