I've been told that there's a database out there that has information
on different truck geometries (in particular, I am looking for garbage
truck geometries).  However, I have been unable to locate such a
database.  Could you help me locate a database providing this
information?

Hello hlg111-ga,
 
Could you be thinking of the Engineering Dynamics Vehicle Data Base?

"As with all vehicles in the HVE Vehicle Database, a complete vehicle
consists of both a vehicle geometry file and a vehicle data file."

Hi Bobbie7,

Thanks for the information!  It's fine to go ahead and post that as an answer.  

I've forwarded it to my colleague to see if it's what he's looking
for; if it's not, I may ask for some follow-up.  I'll let you know.

Thanks!

Hlg111-ga,
