When Percy was late one day, Cranky suggested that "perhaps a lorry" could do his work. True to his word, 3 red, incredibly rude lorries arrived the next day. They called Percy a "little green goblin on wheels", insulted Thomas and James, and told Toby to "toodle off to a museum". Of course, all 3 got their comeuppance in due course: 1 fell off a mountainside, 1 broke down after being overloaded with flour, and 1 reversed into the sea. They were sent away, but not before being nicknamed "Smashed", "Broken", and "Sunk" by Thomas. He was only sold covered in moss.
