4, 6, and 8 are common, a few have 12. ======

I've yet to even hear of a four cylinder semi truck, let alone see one. The 12 cylinder engines, even in their time, were a bit uncommon... the Detroit 12V71, which pretty much went out once the 60 Series was introduced in 1986.

All current production trucks in the US/Canadian market have inline-6 engines.. the last company to offer a V8 was Mack with their EM9 engine, and that went out of production in 2007. Even the 16.1 liter Volvo VE D 16 is an inline six.

V8 engines are more common in European trucks with engine displacements greater than 13 liters, as they're substantially shorter than inline 6 engines, and length limits in Europe and elsewhere are much more stringent than they are in the US and Canada.
