Unusual Tow Vehicle

I wonder about not a lot of leg room in a cab over design. I've seen them (Isuzu) here. GM used to market them as Chevy and GMC medium duties. With a cab over design, I'm also concerned about crash safety. Maybe modern design has taken care of these issues, I dunno.

As far as highway/mountain performance, I've always thought that they were designed and used primarily for city delivery trucks. I'm not sure if long distance highway towing is within their design brief.

The tiny to us NPR is a light delivery truck. Larger and more powerful Cabovers are on highway. NA is the last bastion of conventional truck designs. Everywhere else they have disappeared in fleet and private sales
Even in Australia they are rapidly disappearing
