rogerluli Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 Everywhere I have traveled in China I have seen the same blue colored trucks. Trucks of different sizes from mid to large, but all in the same color. I attempted to ask about in China one time and got an inconclusive response... Watching Chinese TV last night there were the same army of blue trucks in traffic scenes. Does anyone know what the real deal is??? Is there one gigantic CHINA TRUCKING INC. or do trucks only come in that single color??? Link to comment

I do think, though, that most of those trucks are produced in the same factory. Link to comment

chilton747 Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 I like the way the trucks have the tag number also painted on the back of the trucks. I guess this leaves them no way to switch the tags with other trucks. Link to comment
rogerinca Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 It could be just a preference, just as where I live in northern California, most light and medium duty work/commercial trucks are delivered painted white. My wife¡¯s sister is a production manager at the large new auto manufacturing plant in Huadu District of GZ. I will ask Lao Po if she can find out if there is some regulation for the trucks being blue, or if it is just preference, within the culture. Here is a partial listing of commercial truck manufacturers in the PRC, which came off of an automotive website: Chinese Trucks There are many Trucks manufactured in China. Many already export to various nations in Asia, Africa, Europe and North America. Here is a list of many of them: - Beijing (BAW)- Changzhou Chanjiang- Chengdu Wangpai (CDW)- Chongqing-Chang'an- Chongqing-Hongyan- Chongqing Tiema- Chuanlu- CNHTC (China National Heavy Duty Truck Co.) a big player- Dongfeng-Nanchong- Dongfeng-Nissan-Diesel (DND)- Dongfeng-Xinjiang one of the big manufacturers- FAW big player- Foton light trucks- Guangzhou Yangcheng- Guihua- Hebei-Changzheng- Huachuan- Huizhong Shanghuan (SHAC)- Jiangling (JMC) light trucks- Jinhua Young MAN- Juli- Lifan- Nanjing-Chunlan- North-Benz big manufacturer in Inner Mongolia- Sansung- Shaanxi Automobile Group a big one- Shangdong-KAMA- Shandong Shifeng- Shuangli- Wuzheng- Yantai- Yuejin (Nanjing)- Zibo- Ziyang Nanjun (NJP) Link to comment
rogerluli Posted September 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 I know that there's a problem with auto licenses in China in which it's much more expensive to register your vehicle in a city than in the surrounding countryside but then you are not supposed to operate that vehicle in the city so people put fake characters/numbers on their plates...

What worries me is those "blue truck driver types" always have their nose burried in the screen of a mobile phone and text messaging while driving down the highway. Its getting out of hand,these hand phones. Link to comment
