c. 1990 Dodge Dakota wheelbarrow. Washington D.C.

 

From Matthew Sheehey. From the days when Detroit (Warren, Michigan actually) built useful trucks, instead of braggadocio faux-macho monster toys.

These days the Ram Dakota is built in Brazil, and marketed only in South America. Big trucks are killing people, a New York Times investigation reported a couple weeks ago, The Deadly Rise of Giant Trucks.

Meanwhile, hang in there, the Slate truck--the ultimate wheelbarrow...is coming...
