Pulling the cab is a common practice. I actually prefer it so they don't scratch the body or damage anything. My old work truck 08 6.4 had it done a few times.I bought a new F-250 diesel in 2011, it was a crew cab, king ranch, and it was the first year of the new 6.7 diesel motor. While that thing had endless torque, when you opened the hood, there was, literally, zero space inside the hood to do anything, you could not even see daylight from underneath the truck. While I never had to swap one, the mechanic told me it was so tight in there, that if they had to swap the motor, they'd have to pull the entire cab off the truck to do so. It could have used some hood space like that second pic, I wouldn't have complained, too much.
I never understood why the F-250/350 is so much larger than the Chevy model 3/4-1 ton trucks. I've seen those Cen trucks, and they look fabulous!Pulling the cab is a common practice.

Makes my chevy 5.3 look tiny.
Cen makes a 1/10 f250 srw and f450 dually.
The new siilverados are almost as big now. The Colorado is almost as big as my 05 silverado. The new silverado 1500s are 7kIBS, almost a diesel truck weight.I never understood why the F-250/350 is so much larger than the Chevy model 3/4-1 ton trucks.

It's funny, I had a 38' camper trailer I used in the hunting woods, would haul it down before season started, and leave it until the end of the season. Had a buddy who had an F150, used to come up and say he didn't understand why I needed such a big truck, when his would pull that camper just fine. I told him, sure, you can pull it, but try stopping with it. You can smile and waive as you roll through the red light.
Is it even possible for there to be such a thing? That's like saying an ugly muscle car, all lies I tell you!That first and second one, god forbid a driver's side front tire ever blows. You'll be getting a rubber enema
All ugly trucks
Yeah, donuts in that second one would be awesome!

I agree, but with no door how the heck do you get in?
Nascar stlye. Through the window. Getting out is quick. That crash will eject you into the waiting ambulance.I agree, but with no door how the heck do you get in?
Damn rubber people.
