So they try different things. The yellow (orange, amber, whatever...) truck looks designed as a mining truck, but at least the cowl breathes better.

The yellow Tonka truck was a concept truck many years ago, I never thought the design would make it to production, but it did.

The Super chief is cool as far as body lines go (I Like the look of locomotives - steam diesel etc). I can see where the road train idea works, and the new fuel powerplant alternatives are on the way, in the nick of time too.

I'd buy one, if I could afford it!

Now I realize that this has a lot of "concept car" in it, but... "coffered ceilings"? "rear seat ottomans"? I need a damn pickup that can haul a cattle trailer. What I am supposed to do with that thing? Tell them to hop in back seat, put their hooves up and pour them a drink? Ridiculous to even call it a truck...
