A '''truck'''<ref name="MKT name">''Mario Kart Tour'' in-game name</ref> is an obstacle that frequently appears in the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]]. Trucks appear in urban- or highway-themed courses, typically traveling at a constant speed along with the rest of the traffic. They always follow a set path; when traveling along a multi-lane road with other traffic, they will typically drive in the middle of their respective lanes and use turn signals if switching lanes, making their behavior very predictable. If the player hits a moving truck, they will usually flip over. They cannot be destroyed or removed, but they can usually be launched into the air by driving into them while using a [[Super Star]], [[Bullet Bill]], or [[Chain Chomp]], or by hitting them with a [[Super Horn]], [[Super Bell]], [[Giga Bob-omb]], [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]], or [[Bowser's Shell|Bowser Shell]]. Moving trucks may also honk their horns if they hit an item or the player. | |||
''' | Three types of trucks appear most commonly across the series: '''cargo trucks''',<ref>Musa, Alexander (May 30, 2014). "''It’s possible to land on top of some cargo trucks and Jump Boost off the ramps at the front of the cargo container.''" – ''Mario Kart 8'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 164. ''Prima Games''.</ref> pickup trucks (which often drag along a surfboard that racers can use as a ramp), and [[dash panel ramp truck]]s. | ||

Moving | Moving trucks first appear in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', exclusive to [[N64 Toad's Turnpike|Toad's Turnpike]]. The course features a plain gray cargo truck, a flatbed truck carrying white boxes, another flatbed truck carrying planks of wood, and a pale turquoise oil tanker. The flatbeds and cargo trucks share the engine sound of [[Donkey Kong]]'s [[Kart]], and the oil tankers share their engine sound with [[Wario]] and [[Bowser]]'s Karts. If a player hits a truck, they will not lose their item. In this game only, trucks will haphazardly drive between lanes and cannot be launched or otherwise moved by any means. | ||

Cargo trucks also appear in ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'', on [[GCN Mushroom Bridge|Mushroom Bridge]] and [[Mushroom City]]. Both courses can feature three different cargo trucks. One of the trucks is an [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!#Express|Express]] truck, which has a letter and a parcel on the side alongside a [[P-Wing]], and [[Super Mario Bros. 3|SMB3]] on the number plate, referencing the game in which the P-Wing first appeared. There is also an orange [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!#Super Chocolate|Super Chocolate]] truck, which has the name styled similarly to the logo of the first ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' game, two 8-bit jumping [[Mario]] sprites on the back doors, an 8-bit [[Koopa Troopa]] and two 8-bit [[Goomba]]s on the side and [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|W1-1]] on the number plate.

Both courses feature two types of trucks, one which is blue and apparently transports [[Fruit (Yoshi food)|fruits]], and one for the company [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart DS#Fresh|Fresh]]. These new cargo trucks replace the old ones from the original Mushroom Bridge. If a player hits a truck, they will lose their item. | ||

Cargo trucks also appear in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', exclusive to [[Moonview Highway]]. There are three different trucks that appear in this course, a blue cow print truck for [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart Wii#Moo Moo Dairy|Moo Moo Dairy]], a green building block patterned one for [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart Wii#Factory|Factory]] and an orange pineapple patterned one for [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart Wii#Coconut Fruit|Coconut Fruit]]. Their number plates are SMB3, [[1-Up Mushroom|1UP]] and W1-1 respectively. These trucks have the same front body and license plates as the trucks from ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''. However, their speed is dependent on which part of the track they are on, a behavior exclusive to Moonview Highway. If the player hits a truck head on, the player will be squashed by the truck in the same way as being run over by someone with a [[Mega Mushroom]], and will have a lower speed and drive flat for a short while, and hitting the back or side of a truck will cause the player to flip over as usual. In both cases, the player will typically lose their item. Unlike the other traffic on Moonview Highway, driving into a truck while using a Mega Mushroom will not launch them; the trucks will instead act as walls. | Cargo trucks also appear in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', exclusive to [[Moonview Highway]].

====''Mario Kart 7''==== | |||
Cargo trucks also appear in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' on [[Wuhu Loop]], however they have a significantly different appearance in this game. The trucks that appear in ''Mario Kart 7'' are three wheeled yellow pickup trucks, and are about the same size as the [[Car (obstacle)|Cars]], much smaller than its appearances in previous games. If a player hits a truck, they will not lose their item. | |||
Additionally, the first stationary vehicle appears on [[Maka Wuhu]] at the beginning of the track. Unlike all other stationary vehicles, its appearance is chosen at random, meaning it can either appear as a [[Car (obstacle)|car]] or as a pickup truck. | |||

Moving cargo trucks also appear on the retro | [[File:MK8 Surfboard Vehicle.jpg|thumb|250px|[[Shy Guy]] driving towards a truck carrying a surfboard in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'']] | ||
Moving cargo trucks also appear on the retro tracks {{classic-link|N64|Toad's Turnpike}} in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' as well as {{classic-link|DS|Shroom Ridge}}, {{classic-link|Tour|Berlin Byways}}, and {{classic-link|Wii|Moonview Highway}} in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', alongside a few other types of truck, including the [[dash panel ramp truck]]. The cargo trucks on <small>N64</small> Toad's Turnpike can display different sponsors at random, namely [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe#Burning DK|Burning DK]], [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe#Iggy's Glass|Iggy's Glass]], [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe#Moo Moo Meadows Milk|Moo Moo Meadows Milk]], [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe#Propeller Toad Transport|Propeller Toad Transport]], [[Shell Cup]], and ''Mario Kart 8''; however, all of them feature [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe#Wario Motors|Wario Motors]] logos on the front. Cargo trucks on the other aforementioned courses always display Propeller Toad Transport designs. If a player hits any kind of truck, they will not lose their item, and if they were not driving fast enough they will not flip out either. On <small>N64</small> Toad's Turnpike only, some cargo trucks also include ramps on the roof which can be accessed after using a dash panel ramp truck. The unlockable [[Stamp]] for <small>N64</small> Toad's Turnpike is a cargo truck. | |||
[[ | Moving pickup trucks appear in the same courses listed above, although they are absent in the [[Battle Mode]] version of <small>N64</small> Toad's Turnpike in ''Mario Kart 8''. Each of them has a surfboard atop them that they drag along, which functions as a [[ramp]] that players can drive up and [[Jump Boost|trick]] off of, like with a dash panel ramp truck. The vehicles themselves are purple with [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe#Super Marine World|Super Marine World]], [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe#Waluigi Sea Bed|Waluigi Sea Bed]], and [[DS Cheep Cheep Beach|Cheep Cheep Beach]] stickers on them, while the surfboards are yellow with a red flame pattern at the end and a [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe#Red Shell Strike Equipment|Red Shell Strike Equipment]] sticker on them. In this game, pickup trucks are immune to [[Super Horn]]s. | ||
Several courses also feature stationary trucks, though they are always outside the track and thus of no consequence to the player. | |||

Moving cargo trucks also appear in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' on [[GCN Mushroom Bridge]] and [[Wii Moonview Highway]] as well as the latter course's R and T variants. In this game, instead of making racers flip over, moving trucks simply slow them down as a wall would; they are otherwise similar to those of previous ''Mario Kart'' games. When taken out by a player, they give "Truck" bonus points. | Moving cargo trucks also appear in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' on [[GCN Mushroom Bridge]] and [[Wii Moonview Highway]] as well as the latter course's R and T variants.

Stationary cargo trucks also appear on [[GCN Mushroom Bridge|GCN Mushroom Bridge R and R/T]], [[Wii Moonview Highway|Wii Moonview Highway T]], [[Tour New York Minute|New York Minute T]], New York Minute 2T and 2R/T, New York Minute 4T, [[Tour Bangkok Rush|Bangkok Rush]], and Bangkok Rush 2R. Additionally, on each variant of New York Minute 4, there is at least one cargo truck with the property of having two trailers, making it much longer than any other cargo truck in the series. Stationary trucks cannot be launched by any means and merely act as walls, though some cargo trucks have simple ramps on top. Numerous other courses and course variants feature stationary trucks outside the track. | Moving pickup trucks also appear on [[DS Shroom Ridge]] and its R variant, and [[Tour Berlin Byways]] as well as the latter course's R and T variants. As with their ''Mario Kart 8'' and ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' appearances, some pickup trucks carry a surfboard that acts as a ramp, with one or two additional [[coin]]s on top of it for drivers to collect. These trucks are orange, and their surfboards are white with two arrow decals near their tip, pointing forward. On Berlin Byways 3, DS Shroom Ridge, and DS Shroom Ridge R, pink-colored pickup trucks each carry a [[Piranha Plant]] which lunges at racers from a [[Warp Pipe|pipe]] casing. On Berlin Byways 3R, the pickup truck is empty. | ||
Stationary cargo trucks also appear on [[GCN Mushroom Bridge|GCN Mushroom Bridge R and R/T]], [[Wii Moonview Highway|Wii Moonview Highway T]], [[Tour New York Minute|New York Minute T]], New York Minute 2T and 2R/T, New York Minute 4T, [[Tour Bangkok Rush|Bangkok Rush]], and Bangkok Rush 2R. Additionally, on each variant of New York Minute 4, there is at least one cargo truck with the property of having two trailers, making it much longer than any other cargo truck in the series. Stationary trucks cannot be launched by any means and merely act as walls, though some cargo trucks have simple ramps on top. Stationary pickup trucks also appear on [[DS Shroom Ridge|DS Shroom Ridge R/T]], [[Tour Sydney Sprint|Sydney Sprint T]], [[Tour Bangkok Rush|Bangkok Rush 3]], and [[Madrid Drive|Madrid Drive 3R/T]]. In each instance, the pickup trucks are pink. On Shroom Ridge R/T and Bangkok Rush 3, they carry surfboards. On Bangkok Rush 3, they are used as ramps to reach the roof of parked {{wp|Auto rickshaw#Thailand|tuk-tuks}}. Their design is different from that of the trucks in Berlin Byways 3, and it is closer to their ''Mario Kart 8'' and ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' design; the vehicles are pink-colored and the surfboards have a yellow color fading to black with a white flame pattern at the top. On Sydney Sprint T, the pickup truck is empty. On Madrid Drive 3R/T, they carry [[Inky Piranha Plant]]s. Numerous other courses and course variants feature stationary trucks outside the track. | |||
