Look at all that useless bonnet area which could be payload space.
Cabovers are king. Hence why the Jap trucks are so popular as tilt trays in and around cities.

Yanks love their huge hoods and uselessly long wheelbases on trucks that have half the payload capacity of ours.

Only got to look at their 250in WB 389 Peterbilt's pulling one trailer. They talk of 50 000lb being a large load.
