tag and never completed the process (in 2021). Mr.choppers | ✎ 18:35, 22 March 2023 (UTC)- Some options:
- Merge the list into the insanely long List of trucks. This list is a subset of that one, but the trucks list has a tag suggesting a split. If someone does get around to splitting it someday, it could be split into light/medium/heavy duty, or cab over/conventional.
- Create a Low Cab Forward article. This would be a specific type of cab over vehicle, but it needs to be well defined. I tried with the lead sentence of the list, but it needs a reference. Then move the list there as examples. If there's not enough to justify a new LCF article, then at least define it in the Cab over article.
- Expand the list to include all cab over trucks, not just "Low Cab Forward". This would involve splitting List of trucks as mentioned above, and it may be decided cab over/conventional isn't as good a way to split it as light/medium/heavy duty. --Vossanova o< 19:52, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

- Keep Category:Cab over vehicles shows there are plenty of articles for this type of vehicle. They are defined as this in the articles linked to. This is a valid navigational and information list article. A list is far more valuable than a category as it allows for more information to be included. Adding in columns for additional information and images would make the article more useful. Dream Focus 15:03, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

- Keep. Though I do agree the list article needs improvement per Dream Focus, adding some images and more information should do the trick. CycloneYoris talk! 23:12, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
