Types: Trucks come in various types, including pickup trucks, semi-trailer trucks (also known as tractor-trailers or articulated lorries), box trucks, dump trucks, tow trucks, flatbed trucks, and tanker trucks. Each type serves different purposes and industries, such as construction, transportation, logistics, and agriculture.
Size and Capacity: Trucks vary in size and capacity, ranging from small pickup trucks with a payload capacity of a few thousand pounds to large semi-trailer trucks capable of hauling tens of thousands of pounds of cargo. The size and capacity of a truck depend on factors such as wheelbase, bed length, and axle configuration.
Cab Configuration: Trucks typically have a cab, or cabin, where the driver and passengers sit. Cab configurations include regular cabs (with only front seats), extended cabs (with small rear seats or additional storage space), and crew cabs (with full-size rear seats). Some trucks also have sleeper cabs for long-haul drivers.
