Cab and Chassis Advantages
Cab and chassis trucks don’t come with a bed, box, or other accessory behind the cab. You just get what you need to drive, so you’ll see the back axle is exposed. This leaves you with an opportunity to customize your truck to fit your needs. Install a specially made bed or an enclosed space that’ll assist your business.
Some of the more common ways to upgrade a cab and chassis truck, known as bodies, include:
- Dump bodies
- Utility and service bodies
- Cranes
- Emergency services
- And more!
What You’ll Need to Consider
You can do virtually anything with a cab and chassis truck...but not all cab and chassis trucks can do everything. There are still certain restrictions you’ll need to think about. You’ll want to have a good idea of what you’ll want to do with your cab and chassis so you can choose a model that can handle the upgrades.
Specifically, you’ll need to be thinking about weight. As with any other vehicle, these vehicles have a gross vehicle weight rating, or GVWR. This indicates how much the entire truck can weigh before the frame starts to be overloaded. This weight will include the weight of the truck, the upgrades you want to make, as well as cargo and passengers. Knowing what you want to do with the vehicle can help you find a model that can handle the workload--literally.
And, of course, there are other more familiar truck-buying considerations, from budget to fuel efficiency and maintenance. How much power will you need and how many miles do you expect to put on it? Have a list of constraints prepared and then let us help you find the option that fits perfectly in those parameters.
