Clearly designed by someone who hasn't used a pickup truck to it's real potential.

Cool! But I'm struggling with the title of the article. This cab truck was the most single ever? There were other cab trucks that were single, but this one was the most single of them all? Am I misreading this somehow, or is that title just weird?

[–] SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Single cab trucks prioritize cargo space over seating space, generally having only a single bench seat that fits 2 adults and a child, or three often uncomfortable adults. This truck prioritizes cargo space to a much greater degree, having only a single seat, so it's aggressively "single cab".

Then you could add forklift forks and you have a sideloader!

[–] 87Six@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 months ago

That thing looks like a contraption I built in besiege or some game like that

[–] hakase@lemmy.zip 58 points 3 months ago (7 children)

It may be because a large enough load could quickly block the driver's left-side mirror.

Oooh, another thing is that a heavy enough load may imbalance the vehicle enough to make it unsafe on turns.

Anyone see anything else?

[–] chocrates@piefed.world 38 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Yeah, non uniform suspension or adaptive suspension might be important.

Probably not a good idea for 70 miles per hour but it might be a kick ass farm truck

[–] blarghly@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago

That was my first thought. Either the load will make it uneven, or the lack of load will. Also, very weird wind resistence at speed.

But fine at low speed

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 14 points 3 months ago

Large enough load would escape when braking. No wall up front. Add one and visibility goes to shit.

Yard trucks are just a minor evolution away

[–] abbiistabbii@piefed.blahaj.zone 17 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You joke but this is basically what a vintage British Bus looks like, except the non-cab side is for the Engine.

Multicar M24 too

I think an electric variant could fit a larger, irregular bed or more likely, optionally extend the existing one with a flap

It would "work", but it would be aerodynamically unstable so would be limited to low speeds (<~25mph). This is why this configuration is quite common in construction/industry site machinery, where high speeds are unnecessary and unsafe.

Because the steering wheel is on the wrong side.

That's one of the few things where the US actually follows most of the world!

[–] laranis@lemmy.zip 28 points 3 months ago (2 children)

You inspired me to fix it:

Points for a non-AI fix.

It also looks like it's a Kei car. We don't do smart things like that here.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 15 points 3 months ago

I used to work at a furniture factory and we got all our steel delivered in a truck with this configuration. 8m and 10m lengths on the shortest possible wheelbase. No backseat though.

Cybertruck designer here: Just had a huge whipper (subscription based), some dishwasher style metal pannels, and we can sell these babies for 200k.

Looks very similar to our yard mules

Beautifully silly

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 7 points 3 months ago

Don't you hate it when you have a genius idea, only to find out someone else thought of it long ago? Nice try, Einstein. Back to the sandbox.

[–] EpicFailGuy@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

soo ... a tiny yarddog?
