AN IMPROVED COMPOSITE AUTOMOTIVE VEHICLE AND COMPONENTS THEREOF The Abstract of the Disclosure An automotive draft vehicle and an independent load platform are provided which are especially adapted for use as the components of a unique composite automotive vehicle. The resulting composite vehicle utilizes the basic carry-pull technique of a conventional composite rig formed from a prior art truck tractor and a semitrailer, but the load platform is captured against lateral movement and does not have the tracking characteristics of a semitrailer. Also, the composite vehicle retains the handling-steering characteristics of the draft vehicle. The invention is especially useful in restructuring basic two-axle four-wheel and six-wheel trucks of the lighter duty series for use as the draft vehicle component, and in adapting prior art semitrailers for use therewith as the independent load platform component.
