Real World Equivalents

TO-DO:

• Get nice (free) pictures of the real-world cars (this was my original motivation when I started compiling this list)
• More trivia/details on each vehicle
• Possibly even a quick summary about the cars history in real life.
• Links to vehicle manufacturers sites? Or any where else that's possibly more informative or interesting.
• Identify this truck!
  • Big Pickup - it is *almost* a Dodge Ram pickup...

Two Axle Lorry

This isn't based on any particular model but rather is based on a generic type of vehicle. This is a non-articulated commercial lorry/truck with one axle in the rear. "Non-articulated" means that it doesn't bend when it turns. It's also much larger than any van.

A lorry/truck with two axles in the rear would be capable of transporting much heavier loads, and may or may not have a longer box section. Lorries/Trucks larger than that would typically be articulated. (See Wikipedia - Articulated Vehicle, Semi-Trailer Truck)

Triferus: In my research, it appears that the front drive wheels are not counted when referring to the axle count on a lorry/truck, only the rear axles. I found far more web search results related to this vehicle by searching for "single-axle box truck" than anything else. Search results for just "single-axle truck" had the correct number of axles but had all sorts of things like dump trucks, tankers, etc. "Two-axle" trucks/lorries have two axles on the rear. "Tandem-axle" trucks/lorries have two or more axles in the rear. "Box" refers to the box on the back. Thus it would probably be more accurate to call this a "One-Axle Box Lorry" or "One-Axle Lorry".

Some examples: Scania Distribution Box Truck with G Series Cab
