| :The [[Cargo Truck]] has made more appearances than the [[Dash Panel Ramp Truck]], which has only appeared in MK8/Deluxe, and most players would no doubt identify it as simply a "truck", so it should stay as a redirect. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 07:02, 6 December 2017 (EST)

| |
| So my [[Talk:Car (obstacle)|proposal to merge the various generic "traffic" vehicles]] failed due to them having different sizes and properties. The problem is ''this'' page covers two very distinct subjects (both in-game and real life) whose only links are being traffic vehicles and having the same generic name in English parlance. Both "cargo truck" (the big tractor-trailer ones) and "pickup truck" (the small bedded ones) have been used in official capacities for the ''Mario'' versions, so if that's reason to split those others, these should too for consistency.

| #{{User|Doc von Schmeltwick}} - Per
| |
| #{{User|ThePowerPlayer}} Just like my argument in the previous proposal, cargo trucks and pickup trucks have very distinct appearances and functions from each other. The last line of the opening to the article specifically highlights the differences of a pickup truck, strongly suggesting that they should be split.
| |
| #{{User|Camwoodstock}} Seems only fair that if we kept the other road vehicles split, we should split the trucks.
| |
| #{{User|SolemnStormcloud}} Per all.

| #{{User|Ray Trace}} Per all.

| #{{User|Pizza Master}} Per all.

| |
| #{{User|Ahemtoday}} I'm still not convinced cars and trucks and buses being split makes much sense, let alone something like this.

| Are there pickup trucks that don't have the surfboards (the piranha plant ones are styled after the surfboard ones)? {{User:Mario/sig}} 13:24, September 7, 2024 (EDT)

| Might be worth pointing out that cargo trucks are distinguished from the other trucks seemingly only in paratext. Mario Kart Tour calls both pickup and cargo trucks, "Trucks". {{User:Koopa con Carne/Sig}} 15:21, September 7, 2024 (EDT)
| |
| :In that case, the articles post-potential split could be named "Truck (pickup)" and "Truck (cargo)". {{User:DryBonesBandit/sig}} 15:24, September 7, 2024 (EDT)
