Two trucks parked side-by-side in a suburban neighborhood. In the foreground is a small blue kei truck, with a short two-seater cab and a pickup bed with fold-down side panels. Behind it is parked a much larger green Ford F-150 pickup truck. Both vehicles are roughly the same height but the kei truck is considerably shorter, with a flat front end that's roughly even with the F-150's side mirrors.

A view downhill down a city street lined with modest 2-3 story wooden buildings. A street sign in the middle distance says "Montrose" under a "one way" sign pointing left. Further on, four bright yellow diamond signs mark a crosswalk and bike trail crossing. The crossing is flanked with two speed humps. There is no traffic on the street, only a few parked cars.
