    Thinking of buying a 2012 Peterbilt 320 with a 25yd garbage body. Never been around a Cabover. How does the ride compare to a conventional cab. Will be driving on a lot of gravel roads. Any comments? Thanks. Or is there anything to improve the ride? Thanks again

    I’d go for a hood with a set back axle. Just my opinion. Cab overs are a ruff ride, there’s a reason you don’t see many around anymore.
