Creative Truck Advertisements

Nice collection of creative advertisements on trucks.

Nice ideas, but many of them (all the 3D stuff) are hardly possible unless realized as holograms. For example, the drawings about Coke or Pepsi on the trunks would look really bad if you looked at the trunk from another angle.
