Lorry or Truck

Lorry = English

Truck = American

Australians and New Zealanders call them trucks in addition to it being an internationally understood term in which lorry makes as much sense to a Latin American operator as Camion does to a Scandinavian or Slav etc.Which probably explains why I helped to make and drove fire trucks for export around the world while they were never called fire lorries even here.Also maybe why it’s not called lorrynet uk. :bulb:

Generally, trucks are called Prime Movers or PM’s in Australia … further more most Fire trucks are called Fire engines or pumps … my a Father in Law is a 35 year vet of London Fire Brigade and they generally refer to them as Engines and pumps.
