This 2012 Peterbilt 348 is a used sewer truck — also known as a vacuum excavation truck or hydrovac truck — designed for non-destructive digging, sewer jetting, and liquid waste removal. Peterbilt is a well-established American commercial truck manufacturer with a long history of producing heavy-duty vocational and highway trucks for municipal, construction, and utility industries. This particular unit is configured as a Vac Con V350LHA hydro excavation vacuum truck, making it a capable machine for both hydro excavation and high-pressure sewer cleaning work.
The chassis is powered by a Paccar PX-8 engine rated at 300 horsepower, paired with an Allison 3000 RDS automatic transmission for smooth, low-effort operation in stop-and-go municipal environments. Air brakes and an engine brake are fitted, along with air conditioning for operator comfort. The truck has logged 49,813 miles on the odometer and 4,010 total hours, and was previously operated as a city unit.
The vacuum system is driven by a dedicated Deutz 2012C auxiliary diesel engine rated at 131 horsepower, which has accumulated 3,140 hours of service. A three-stage fan provides the suction power, with an 8-inch suction hose for debris pickup into a 5 cubic yard debris tank. The water system centres on a Giant water pump delivering 50 GPM at 3,000 PSI, fed from an onboard 850-gallon water tank. High-pressure water delivery is available through a front-mounted jetter fitted with a 3/4-inch hose, while a side-mounted hose reel and a separate side-mounted hydro excavation hose reel give operators flexible access for a range of tasks. A wireless remote control is included for operating the vacuum system from a safe distance.
The truck is rated at a 43,000-pound GVWR, with 20,000-pound front axle and 23,000-pound rear axle ratings. It is located in California, USA, and is offered at $149,900.
