Ford F-350 plainjane and Big Mack. Manchester, New Hampshire.

 

From Reid Cunningham: "The modesty of the F-350 caught my eye.  A plainjane New England work truck: flatbed, snowplow, diesel... lots of capability, 0 truck-on-steroids design elements. And who doesn't love an old Mack?"

More transmigrantes

 

You caught our post last week on los transmigrantes. This rig was rolling though Marfa today, on the road to Presidio, Mexico, and Guatemala. This outfit is very common: one pickup towing another, Toyotas the most popular. both piled with parts and other stuff.

Ford F-800 and F-8. Manchester, New Hampshire

 

From Reid Cunningham: "A wrong turn and Google maps routing me through an industrial park on Manchester NH resulted in me stumbling across a trove of old medium and heavy duty trucks.  My favorites were these F-8's, and I got some pictures of some other old haulers.   My best guess is they are all runners...especially the Fords, given their excellent condition."  

Slate EV trucks

Slate trucks are supposed to be available this year. If so, they could electrify the  'wheelbarrow' genre: small, useful, and increasingly hard-to-find workhorse pickups. Think Toyota Hilux, Ford Ranger. Thanks to Alex Emond in Banff for the heads-up.
