In the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series, '''trucks'''<ref name="MKT name">''Mario Kart Tour'' in-game name</ref> appear as obstacles in urban- or highway-themed courses, driving along the main roads with all of the other traffic. In most games, if the player gets hit by a truck, it will have the same effect as driving over a [[Banana#Mario Kart series|Banana]], causing the player to spin out. There is no way to destroy a truck, but they can be launched into the air by driving into them with a [[Super Star]], [[Bullet Bill]], [[Chain Chomp]] or [[Mega Mushroom]], or by throwing a [[Bowser Shell]] at them. If a truck is hit by anything, it honks its horn at the player. In ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', if a truck is lifted into the air, it stops moving, whereas in future games, it continues to move even while in the air. | In the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series, '''trucks'''<ref name="MKT name">''Mario Kart Tour'' in-game name</ref> appear as obstacles in urban- or highway-themed courses, driving along the main roads with all of the other traffic.

Two types of trucks appear most commonly across the series: pickup trucks, which often drag along a surfboard that racers can use as a ramp, and '''cargo trucks'''<ref>Musa, Alexander (May 30, 2014).
