What I've seen is some companies will supply everything while others will just have wires run. The company supplied radios tend to be total ####.

Most of the tractors I've had for the last few year have had consoles or radio platforms that are prewired and have anntennas and the coax. They hold your radio with Velcro straps. The antennas and coax are usually lower quality stuff though.

Most all trucks in the last two decades come wired from the factory,its generally garbage after just a few months.

If its a Cb radio they have little choice it has to be legal OR they take the chance if the FCC comes snooping around. If you own it they have some leway ....
