These remind me of 1960s/1970s airline livery designs.
Great series !
Haha these are terrific. I can hear the turn signal chimes!
Truck-Kun be stylin’
Fun fact! Trucks like this in Japan used to always have their letter order reversed on the right side of the truck, so the left side of the truck would read left-to-right, and the right side of the truck would read right-to-left. This is still present a lot today. In pictures 2, 3, and 5, all of the letter order reads right-to-left, and not just the big company name on the cargo part, but also the small lettering on the cab doors.

Cute trucks, small but strong and carry a lot. I love their tiny cubic cars too, the ones that are use for narrow streets.
Side note for those that might not be familiar with photography. The G100 uses an m4/3 sensor. In standard photography you will find the focal length as full frame sensor, in this case you just need to multiply by 2. So if you look for 30-35mm photography on internet or youtube you’ll have the same type image in proportion. I really like small mirrorless cameras, they are as good as DSLRs which are more bulky, heavy and expensive. These little ones are the best for travelling.
There is a tv program for kids called hataraku kuruma, which focuses on the various vehicles used in Japan in day to day business. It’s dated though (80s) but the intro song is quite catchy.
