Freightliner MT45 16’ P900 Step Van: A FedEx Contractor Favorite
When it comes to FedEx delivery, the 16’ P900 step van is one of the most sought-after trucks on the road. Built on the Freightliner MT45 chassis, this model balances cargo space, maneuverability, and long-lasting durability — making it a perfect fit for FedEx Ground contractors.
At our dealership, we specialize in supplying reconditioned P900s that are FedEx-ready.
What is a P900 Step Van?
P900 is FedEx’s designation for step vans with a 16’ cargo body.
Typically offers ~1,000–1,200 cu. ft. of storage space.
Popular because it’s larger than a P700 but still easier to handle than a P1000 or P1200.
The “sweet spot” for routes that require capacity without sacrificing efficiency.
Why Contractors Choose the Freightliner MT45?
Proven Diesel Power: Many MT45s come with Cummins diesel engines, known for their longevity and torque.
Built for Work: Sturdy frame and drivetrain designed for commercial use.
Easy Parts & Service: Freightliner’s nationwide support network makes upkeep straightforward.
Driver-Friendly Design: Wide cab entry, clear visibility, and ergonomic layout.
Benefits of the 16’ Cargo Size for FedEx Routes?
Large enough to handle peak volume, small enough for tight neighborhoods.
Helps reduce multiple trips back to the terminal.
Contractors report that 16’ trucks deliver the best balance between efficiency and earnings.
Fuel and maintenance costs are often lower compared to oversized vans.
