Interesting, though in Europe and the UK, that *is* what it refers to, semi articulated. Interestingly though, if the tractor unit supports the front, it does mean that anyway, i'd assume just another way of saying the same thing?Semi doesn't actually refer to articulation. The term was once "semi-trailer" as in a semi-supported trailer. It supports itself at the rear and a tractor supports it at the front. We also often call it a tractor/trailer. But ain't no nevemind nohow.
