Wouldn't it be nice, especially in a city like New York with such a dearth of clean public restrooms, to have a honey wagon follow you around? Maybe a mini version, just driving behind you, ready whenever you need it? Another interesting tidbit, thanks Nathan!

This truck's prime reason for existence is...toilets. Origins: A synonym for chamber pot used to be honey pot. In the early days of shooting Westerns out in the desert, they'd have a truck with some curtained off sections called the "honey truck". Over time, they became what you photographed...a couple of spaces devoted to restroom facilities and 4-6 dressing rooms for lowly actors who don't rate a trailer for themselves.
