This is the first year [[Ridewell air suspension]] was added to the standard equipment. However, some early 1980 units were shipped with leaf spring suspension.  The Forward Control (FC) model was equipped with a [[Caterpillar 3208 NA 210hp]] engine, [[Allison MT-643]] automatic 4-speed transmission, and available in 31',33' or 35' lengths.  The FC had two generator variants, a [[Kohler 7.5kW gasoline generator]] on the 31' and 33' models or a [[Kohler 12.5kW Diesel Generator]] on the 35' model.
