Trucks and Cars and Things


So recently I started working a little on an automobile system looking at most aspects of transport and mechanical design from a new perspective. For the time being I am just kind of concept storming and using Google SketchUp to model some ideas but eventually I think it would be really interesting to take the project a bit further. In any case, today I was reading Dark Roasted Belnd where they were discussing truck trains. One of the companies highlighted by the article is a really innovative new company that is doing a few interesting things to create universally better trucks. The company is called ETF (Emirates Truck Factory) and as far as I can immediately tell they are not in production at the moment. I hope the do come soon and I hope they apply some of their interesting innovations to a wider range of mobility applications.
