As least they can still have a little class added to their trucks......For now.

Peterbilt, at least for now, still offers customers a traditional cab. They give you a choice. The Model 367 makes for a great vocational chassis or low-boy tractor.

Does Pete offer steel crossmembers? We had a salesman spec out a 567  heavy duty chassis and the sheet says it has aluminum crossmembers with the heavy duty double frames. seems odd.

Kenworth use aluminium cross members on everything up to 90t rating down here.
