Cab and Chassis

Cab and Chassis (CC, or C & C)

• Definition: The term “cab and chassis” typically refers to a truck that includes the cab (where the driver sits) and the basic frame or chassis but lacks a rear cargo area, allowing for customization based on specific needs. However, in the context of tractor-trailers, “cab and chassis” can refer to the front portion of the unit that houses the engine and driver, ready to be connected to a trailer.
• Context: This configuration is often seen in commercial vehicles where flexibility is needed for various types of applications, such as attaching different types of trailers or bodies.
• Example Usage: “The company ordered a cab and chassis to attach to their new refrigerated trailer for long-haul deliveries.”
