Definitely in older trucks. Is this true in new trucks? Half the time it seems maintenance begins with removing the cab and removing the truck from the engine

  They're still a lot better than cars. In trucks you usually need to pull the cab for convenience. In cars you often need to drop the engine in order to do the repair at all. Some things (like a rear valve cover on a transverse v6) often don't have clearance to come off. Realistically it doesn't really matter because it's easier to optimize for not breaking shit or fixing it before is strands you.
