They certainly look different, but I don't think so.

Look a a profile. They're cab-overs. In other countries that do not have the same quality roads that we have, that design is fine. Here, most of the highways are designed for more space, and can accommodate a longer chassis. Companies here went away from COE to conventional tractors to attract drivers. I do not see a lot of acceptance of a COE no matter how fancy they make it.

They look like something from a cartoon. Or some science-fiction movie.

They talked about this truck on the discovery channel. It's supposed to get some crazy MPG. Something like 15 mpg loaded. I would drive a giant dildo if it made me that kind of money and I was an OO.

LOL

Better yet... they look like aliens. The windshield looks like a big eyeball.
:lol:
What's funny to me, there isn't side windows. I guess you will be looking through that big round window.
