    I believe Victory Express used to have some of those. They’re definitely unusual.

    I will agree 110% with the post as it pertains to the fiberglass/plastic mass produced garbage trucks of today. I read all the issues about drivers are having with the technology/electronics in the trucks in the CB section of the forum. Grounding issues on plastic does not work real well.

    I saw an old kw cabover pass me on the interstate other day. It was just too cool to still see those trucks still being used. I remember my grandfather who drove for 42 yrs had an old cabover..I remember going to his house as a child and climbing up in that thing. It was probably one of the best memories I have to date of my grandfather and spending time with him working on it and cleaning it...and honestly probably gave me the bug to start driving.
