> for practical (slightly easier access for maintenance IIRC) It's mainly this. A ton of truck drivers love the looks of the old Kenworth cab overs, but the issue is definitely maintenance becomes a nightmare. When the cab tilts forward, it makes access to the radiator more difficult. There is also the inconvenience that the entire cab has to be tilted forward in order to access it. Which sends anything not secured rolling forward and out of place. Minor, but annoying. However, the cab overs that dominated the 70s and 80s here in the US still don't have the same sight lines that the euro trucks do now.
