Default Pinoy Tricycles

Tricycle is probably one of the more common mode of transportation in the Philippines. Everywhere you go, in about every city in every region, you see these vehicles around. Though they all serve the same purpose, haven't you noticed the different shapes and sizes?

Please post here pictures of the tricycle in your city.

If there's a TukTuk in Thailand, we also have our TRICYCLE. You will be surprised that as small as it is it can carry loads of stuff. It is truly functional and it fits the Filipino physique.

The most unique model I saw so far is the Davao version, especially the ones going up to Eden Nature Park. They use garden umbrella for roof.

Wow. This really is unique. I have never seen anything like this. I have seen large tricycles, with at least six-sitting capacity. I will try to post something when I find one. THIS one is really crazy. Haha. How can the man on top go down then?
