How a Truck works

Trucks, also known as lorries, are large, motorized vehicles designed primarily for transporting goods and materials over land. They are a critical component of the global logistics and supply chain, used in industries such as construction, manufacturing, retail, and agriculture. Trucks vary widely in size, configuration, and purpose, ranging from light-duty pickup trucks to heavy-duty semi-trailer trucks.
Trucks typically feature robust chassis, powerful engines (diesel or gasoline), and large cargo areas. Heavy-duty trucks often use a cab-and-trailer configuration, with the cab housing the driver and controls, and the trailer carrying the load. Modern trucks incorporate advanced technologies like GPS, automated transmissions, and telematics for fuel efficiency and safety.
Light Trucks: Compact vehicles like pickup trucks and vans, ideal for small-scale deliveries or personal use. Examples: Ford F-150, Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Ram 1500.
Medium Trucks: Built for regional deliveries, including box trucks and flatbeds. Examples: Ford F-650, Chevrolet Silverado 4500HD, Freightliner M2 106.
Heavy Trucks: Designed for long-haul transport, such as tractor-trailers and dump trucks. Examples: Freightliner Cascadia, Peterbilt 579, Kenworth T680.
Specialized Trucks: Engineered for specific tasks, such as tow trucks, refrigerated trucks, or cement mixers. Examples: Mack Granite, International WorkStar, Oshkosh P-19.
