RRE is not a truck, trucks are vehicles that pull 40ft long trailers full of cargo along the highways................. Wink

Here they call SUVs also trucks sometimes.

Looks like the star of the show is the Acura NSX Concept.

Oxford Dictionary Definition of Truck:
noun
1a wheeled vehicle, in particular:
a large road vehicle, used for carrying goods, materials, or troops; a lorry.
British a railway vehicle for carrying freight, especially a small open one.
a low flat-topped trolley used for moving heavy items.

Hmmm...a wheeled vehicle, sure...large? Hardly! Used for carrying Goods? A few...troops? Not many...a Lorry? Don't think so... Laughing

Not a railway vehicle either judging by the wheels... Rolling Eyes

Low trolley? Nah, couldn't cope with heavy items! Shocked

Not a truck then! Very Happy
