Typical scrapper, around here its normally an 80s Ford or Chevy half ton that is overloaded. See them on my road every week on trash night. Almost hit one a couple months ago. There is a dip in the road near me and they were stopped in the dark. The two guys were behind the truck loading something and blocking the taillights. Noticed the truck just in time to swerve and not hit them.

The nice thing is, when he gets to the scrap metal dealer, he won't have to unload the truck, they can just scrap the whole thing.
