Yeah, it would be a nightmare if there was an electrical problem.

That sounds similar to a "Hair on Fire Day."
Especially at 60 mph going down the highway.

Oh! come on! You know all the wiring is routed safe and tied down to prevent rubbing on sharp edges!

Years ago working construction driver calls in he was close to shop & had a electrical storm
in dash. A oblong x 6" flat river rock was stuck in the dash, sparks a sizzle. Was stuck in the
duals pulling a belly dump went right through the vertical rungs on the headache rack just
missing his shoulder. Back in the days of two way radio.

Some might consider this a little over the top {an over load of sorts}. If he had left the
skull off the top it would have been just right, that addition was just a little too much.

Driven a Sterling, would have been better off continuing the L LT LTL LN series than build those.

I haven't driven it. Friends have a 1998 Sterling tandem dump. It has a great many miles on it. Son,(50) parked it on a gentle grade in gear, didn't set the spring brakes & took another job. Truck sat unused a month or more. Father, (75 at the time) felt it should get a bit of exercise. He climbed up, put it out of gear, started it. After it built air enough to release the spring brakes, it rolled down thhe hill smashing through the wall of the building.
That is when they learned there is a different hood for each engine option. Took forever to find a replacement hood/grill.
