A new highway freight transporting vehicle has been developed which maximizes the available payload space within existing regulatory limitations. The vehicle is a combination of a low profiled driver forward mid-engined tractor coupled to a freight box, and pulling a semi-trailer. The application of existing components in the revised configuration will be discussed to clarify the design approach features and performance. (Kursetz)
