I love a cab over on a small lot!
Guessing there is a lot of advantage in turn radius and such with them.
Im not a truck driver.
Worked for a construction co. at one time and on one job I was tasked with loading exc. material into trucks for a big project.
I tried to run it like a conductor herding cats.
with 30-40 trucks being fed by 4-5 excavators and a loader or two my challenge was to see how quick I could get them on site than get them out.
Some did not appreciate my demeanor as I was kind of a tyrant. If you fucked up my operation and ruined the flow I let you know.
The upside for them was if it worked they might get an extra trip out of the day.
Dirt broker ruined it though.
He based their pay on a max number of rounds and didnt appreciate the extra loads. I had to stop.
Still though I didnt because the quicker they loaded, the less congestion on my site, the faster the excavator could be used to dig the hole.
That job allowed me to look at a lot of trucks and the riveted Peterbilts were my favorite.
Cabovers dont generally do that work. Guessing long frame is better for construction weights.
