The drivetrain doesn't have a place to live. The nose of a truck holds the guts, freeing up space for load in the other half. Moving the guts to a cab-over would shrink the available engine size. Having all the power train to one side would require entirely new engineering to have 2 double length axles with no counter spinning force, so torque on the frame would twist the chassis up at the far point like a lever.

Or it would be underpowered to prevent it, effectively a kei truck engine in a full sized truck body. It is going to work much harder in some way to be as successful as existing trucks.

Funny. I was thinking how cool it would be if an EV truck with a frunk had a midgate, fold down front passenger seat, and ability to open the dash somehow to pass though very long things into trunk area.

As someone else already mentioned, these do exist but you don't see them on the road because it usually easier to just get a bigger truck without all the quirks.

Another case where vans are the superior utility vehicle: strap your long stuff onto your roof rack.

Would be perfekt for jousting, if it wasn’t a drawing

It could probably hold 3-4 pallets, if it wasn't a drawing

I also had this truck idea. I've seen at least one real version of such a thing.
