Cab & Chassis Trucks For Sale in Ontario

The Versatility of Cab & Chassis Trucks

Cab and chassis trucks allow customers to build a vehicle that’s tailored to their unique needs. Instead of coming as a pre-assembled vehicle or piece of equipment, they are a half-bare chassis connected to a truck cab. Owners can then assemble these trucks using aftermarket equipment that best suits their needs, making this vehicle one of the most versatile and customizable ones on the market.

Picking The Right Specifications

When you shop for cab and chassis trucks, you'll need to find the right specs to make sure the truck can get the job done. Begin by figuring out the type and size of load that you'll be transporting. This affects the body type and the amount of horsepower you'll need from your engine. It is also important to take into account the environment in which you'll be using your vehicle. Make sure it can handle the given terrain as well as the size of the worksite.

One key spec is the gross vehicle weight rating or GVWR, which refers to the weight of the base vehicle combined with the weight of its occupants, cargo, any equipment, and the tongue weight if trailering. Your payload capacity will be the GVWR minus the curb weight (which is the weight of your unloaded vehicle).

Another thing to consider is your frame, which is measured by resisting bending moment. This correlates to the frame's ability to twist to a point before it bends and stays bent.
