Let's analyse what we see here.
First of all, lots of bling bling. Blinking chrome and stainless steel everywhere. And then those huge pipes rising up behind the cab, they would make an ocean liner jealous.
Now to the more practical sides.
How to get into the cab? You have to climb up a ladder next to the door, open the door, and swing yourself in like a gibbon. Once you're in there will be a huge doghouse next to you. Behind you will be a bed. Standing up inside the cab is impossible, no headroom.
So, what is so great about this truck? Or is it just an example of how trucks were made in the good old days?
Why do so many Americans hate European trucks?

Those electric steps may have been a requirement by the Australian authorities. They may have deemed the 'gibbon way' of entering the cab too dangerous. -

I owned a few back when i first got into trucking and never had a problem getting in or out of one. That leads me to the conclusion that either the ones complaining never actually drove a cabover, or they are so clumsy they should put a helmet on before leaving the house.Cat sdp Thanks this.
