THIS Is Why America Stopped Making Cab-over Trucks

Ironically near the end of its production run the Argosy cabover used Cascadia components. It could be had with Detroit or Meritor axles,Airliner suspension (also found on the Coronado/SD models) and numerous interior switches,knobs, interior components,etc.

 

It's not a lot of fun riding right on top of the steer axle.plus I remember having to lay in the bunk to put your clothes on

 

I stoped watching it in the first 20 seconds just as soon as they said a curb sniffing plastic Tupperware torpedo was a long nose this video just completely recks of BS what a joke

 

I see a fair number of em around here.

Likely an AI script and voiceover.

 

Fleets quit buying them because the fat arse drivers kept getting hurt climbing in and out of them, way too many workmen comp claims. Could you imagine some of the lard arses we have out here today who can barely waddle from the truck to the truck stop trying to climb into a cabover?

 

There definitely was a technique for getting in and out.

 

Depending on the equipment the Argosy actually had swing out steps!

 

I like the swing out staircase. That's a brilliant implementation.
