Clever modification to a vehicle in Gujarat, India

What probably gave them away was the 'clinking' noise from the bottles when the truck moved. They should've used a damping material like straws or sponges between bottles while stacking the load. Amateurs 😏

Diabolically clever. Gives a whole new meaning to the word ‘Payload!’ But I assure you this kind of innovation was not part of the design brief for the pickup truck Product Development team at our research centre, nor will it EVER be! 😊 pic.twitter.com/JMqZN0VDAx

Nothing much clever. The transporters are regularly doing such modifications to their vehicles to carry extra load or even contraband. Some are even strengthening their suspension springs. What will happen to the engine and the road is another story.
