Trucks are motor vehicles that are seen on many different types of roads.
Tractor-trailers carry heavy cargo and a metal plate connects the tractor to the trailer. Platform trucks carry animals and produce. Smaller trucks do not have a cab such as a panel truck. Fire trucks, tow trucks, and utility trucks are called emergency trucks. Flatbed trucks carry logs from trees.
