Transport - Truck Cab
Description
A semi-trailer truck or tractor-trailer (colloquially known as an 18-wheeler, semi, or big-rig in the U.S.; as a semi in Australia, and Canada; and as an articulated lorry (artic), or truck and trailer in the UK, Ireland, and New Zealand) is an articulated truck or lorry consisting of a towing engine (tractor in the U.S., prime mover in Australia, and truck in the UK and New Zealand), and a semi-trailer (plus possible additional trailers) that carries the freight.
The AF example, is obviously an American version. In North America, semi tractors usually have 3 axles, the front, or “steer”, axle having two wheels, and each of the two rear, “drive”, axles having a pair of “dualies” (double) wheels on each side. Thus, the most common configuration of tractor has 10 wheels.

Information
You can find these trucks on Road Rage (32 & 64player only) and Harvest on 16player size only.
They are slowish (Humvee speed), have medium armour and no weaponry. Crew comprises of the driver and 1 passenger only, neither of which can shoot from inside the truck.
This makes them very vulnerable to the guns of Scout Helis.
