Here are just a few of the uses of this versatile workhorse.

Most triciclos are factory made as on the left, but some are made by local welding shops. 

Most cruise the streets, but some (marked *) operate from the same spot each day for specific hours by agreement with the city.

While most of the triciclos shown here are for street vendors, there are many other uses, and some are just the family car.

From the nursery to stores.

Before starting his daily tour, Pedro is peeling tunas (cactus fruit) which will then be iced down.

*Tacos for the breakfast break.  By noon, this triciclo will be gone, and this will be a parking space again.

*Hot corn on the cob in the plaza in the evening.

*Excellent tacos by the park.

How about a custom front drive low rider?

And there are motorized tricycles.

I wish this were mine.
