With the demise of commercial pineapple farming on Maui, 300 workers will be laid off. And those ubiquitous yellow Maui pineapple trucks will be gone too. I took these pics after taking the last tour ever offered on the plantation. This example was tucked away in a gated yard. As soon as I got there and took my camera out, a couple of tough looking teamster-types started walking up to me. No doubt they thought I was some kind of agitator, as tensions must be high. So I took a couple of pictures and hightailed it out of there.
These, I believe, will be the last pictures taken of the fabled yellow Maui pineapple trucks.
