could it be ....overweight over the front steer !!!!! oops. Ice truckers need to spread the weight out....
or objects in front appear closer now !!!!!! have to buy new specs to see up close.
Can't put a cabframe on it for a carpark, cause bridges are too low.

same reason the american motorist won't buy a "touring" car. sure, we sell some, but not like europe. we also won't buy stickshifts. only 7% or cars sold here today are manual shift.

It's not just the visual position - it's the ride quality. You expect these truckers to drive 150k per year sittin over the front tyre?? I don't think so. A friend who owns an insulation co. w/20 straight jobs, most of them Isuzus, drove one on a weekend snowmobile trip. He said never again, he had no guts left. Now he knows why his employees hate the darn things.
