Decorated trucks in Japan

Most people probably associate “decorated trucks” with Pakistan or Central-Asian countries, but the most extravagant monsters of what locally are called dekotora can be found in Japan!

Of course, when you drive a car you can spot examples on trunkroads and highways with their loads of shiny metal and flashing lights, but until I read this article by Pink Tentacle with its many great links, I never realized how far this fashion went in Japan!

My favorite is this site of Airbrush Art Truck. If you drive at night and suddenly see that devil’s face in front of you, you might think for a moment that you have kicked the bucket and landed in hell!
