Thai Trucks
The Big Trucks of Thailand. Being in Thailand last year, far away from California, I was always looking for cultural similarities to reference. It was the vehicular culture of Thailand that made me feel most at home, that I found comforting, even though vehicles take different forms in Thailand, I felt like I was in a car culture. Here’s the trucks.

Above - Sitting in a truckbed, I saw tons and tons of these huge piles of sticks being transported by truck in Eastern Thailand. These would be piled shockingly high on the trucks. Also, almost all of the trucks I saw were either Isuzus or Hinos. I saw a lot of beautiful Hino grills in Thailand. That’s Danoi on the right, who’s great company in the back of a pickup when there’s a bottle of whiskey to be shared.
