I have noticed that some Peterbilt trucks among others have long frames with a lot of space between the cab and the trailer. What are the reasons for this? Is there an advantage to having a truck with a longer frame as opposed to a shorter one?Peterbilt truck frames?
if you are talking about tractors it gives you a longer wheel base better ride is one reason how ever you can get any truck with long wheel bases better stability with a long wheel base vs a shorter onePeterbilt truck frames?
Long wheelbase gives a better ride, however the reason most trucks (that you describe) are stretched is because the owner thinks it looks cool. If you notice, most of them have 8" open exhaust pipes too. Reason being the owner thinks it sounds cool. Personally, I think both are a waste of money.
