Why do Thai tuk-tuks always get listed as custom made? There is at least one large-scale manufacturer: /vehicles_make-Expertise_model-Icon.html

maybe because they didn't show brand and model.

Then we can just list them as unknown.

Again, quite debatable and unsatisfying, this "custom made" appellation. Hino Humbee?

I agree, but it keeps them together (rather than across 870 pages of unknowns) should someone try to systematically clean them.

Similar case with the Beach Buggies. Most of them have a maker but it will be almost impossible to find it for all of them.

The three tuk-tuk of the movie all seem 1. to each have an important role and 2. to be of the exact same kind (look at the windshield and roof ensemble, at the headlights, at the walking board (I mean marchepied).

So, it would be quite sufficient to identify one of them (I think they are Hino Humbee, but I'd wait for kegare or an other specialist to confirm) to have them 'kept together'… exactly where they do belong.
