In 1976, the truck was made and from 1976 to 1990 the Swiss Army used it with the M number M+81287. A other one was used until the year 2000 by the civilian Nüssli AG.[1] It never entered mass production, because the Army bought 72 of the dump trucks Saurer D 330 N. The only vehicle is today in the Military Museum Full. The FBW Type 80 was one of the last designed Trucks from FBW.[2]
