Oh, it's not a truck at all, it is a U-T-E. A truck is a vehicle over 4 ton and that small white vehicle with a tray behind the cabin, for you dumb yanks, is a bloody "utility".

In the USA, they call it trucks starting from 1/2 ton (1000 pounds) truck and are classified number one through 8 based on the vehicle's gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR). Elsewhere, they call it pickups.
