trucks
Big road haulers
Trucks are large motor vehicles designed to carry heavy loads, distinguished from cars by their cargo capacity.
A pickup truck has an open bed; a semi-truck hauls freight trailers.
The verb means to transport by truck: We trucked the equipment across state lines.
To have no truck with something is to refuse involvement with it.
In informal use, to keep on trucking is to persist steadily.
