Spotted this grand old Tempo 3 wheeler at a filling station in Madhopur, Punjab.
Only a handful of these are still seen ferrying people and goods in some pockets of rural and semi-urban India.
The design is intriguing because the two rear wheels had an inwards slant of nearly 30 degrees at the points of contact with the road. As the load increased, the wheels straightened up.

Kms Of India is one of the associated forums of Indian Roadie to drive home the point that driving is not only about reaching Point B from Point A. A true roadtripper enjoys every kilometre of India.
