- Abandoned pickup at Kelvin A. Lewis farm in Creeds, Virginia. A recent attempt at Cart-ish photo. Bringing this to FPC was suggested at QIC. All by me. -- PumpkinSky talk 13:25, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
- Support -- PumpkinSky talk 13:25, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
- Support Tack sharp, beautiful lighting and great details. -- Johann Jaritz (talk) 13:31, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
- Support When I saw the thumbnail my intention was not to vote. However at 100% view I've seen all these plentiful details! The crop of the lower right corner is a bit disturbing, though. --Basotxerri (talk) 13:53, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose Nothing special at all about this image. Technically o.k., good enough for QI, but a featured picture must be more special. --Granada (talk) 14:47, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
Support I agree with Johann Jaritz and Basotxerri. The focus, details, and lighting are excellent and the truck seems to pop out of the photo.

- @Ikan Kekek: I have other pics that are backed up. See recent uploads. I specifically took this one to show some of the inside and busted windshield. PumpkinSky talk 19:33, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose Doesn't wow me.--Peulle (talk) 23:28, 17 December 2017 (UTC)

- Support For me, this is a special vehicle. It is a vending machine. In those years you hardly saw vending machines in Europe. Do you know the brand, type and year of construction of this truck?--Famberhorst (talk) 17:40, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
- Not for certain. It definitely wasn't made before 1960. To me it looks like it was made between the late 1960s and early 1980s. If you zoom in on the other photos of this truck (photos 3 and 4, which I'll link in "other versions" in a moment), you can see it used to have a logo that started with a "C", so I'm going with Chevrolet. But the front logo looks like it was a 3-digit number so maybe it's a Ford. PumpkinSky talk 17:50, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
- @Famberhorst: The logo in the back wasn't for "Chevrolet", it was for "Custom". Given the front logo was a 3-digit number that looks like it ends in "00", it's likely a Ford. Maybe a F-100. PumpkinSky talk 18:51, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose I admit this sort of thing can make a fascinating subject, but that doesn't automatically make it featurable. Daniel Case (talk) 18:21, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
