Some of the cab frame might be 16. Most sheet metal shops only stock even gage sheet metal except for 11 gage (1/8). 20 gage is a bit on the thin side. 18 is more work to form but you can grind and/or file it more than 20.

That's the info I was looking for. First time I've heard of 19 gauge and that explains the 18-20 gauge question.
