| “ | "Space Trucking"... Can hide things in a space between a card and another card. They may appear to be being crushed, but... They're just hidden. | ” |

Space Trucking (スペース・トラッキング Supēsu Torakkingu) is the Stand of Kaato Higashikata, featured in JoJolion.
Appearance[]
Usually, Space Trucking resembles a regular deck of playing cards, with Higashikata family crest on the cards. However, the Stand also has an alternate humanoid form. The stand lacks a face and has what seems to be the 2 decals of the sides of a dice plastered on its head.
This form has a large torso in proportion to the legs and arms which are very skinny (which the hands have what resembles the skeletal structure of the hand) and many suits plastered around its body. The Stand has two shoulder guards which (that appear to be folded cards) has one end fold down the forearms, and the other end of the two cards fold down a bit beyond the chest making what looks like a "jacket". Some hearts on the left shoulder, the king of spades and some clubs on the right shoulder.
Down to the groin, has diamond scattered across it. Its right leg has an ace of spades as a kneepad. On the waist, it wears a band which has a pattern with a similar motif to its user's design.
Abilities[]
Little is known about Space Trucking because Kaato only used it a couple of times in the whole timeline of JoJolion. Although it does have a humanoid form, it doesn't attack physically, but rather using its ability of storing objects for various uses.
Object-Storing Cards[]
Space Trucking can store objects or people between cards manifested by the Stand itself as if nothing were there. If the card possessing the object is turned over or revealed, the stored entity is released. The limit of the size for a contained object is unknown, but the hidden objects can be considerably larger than the card itself. By far Kaato is only seen to use Space Trucking to store: her phone[1], one of the chairs in the Higashikata House[2] or even her dying grandchild[3]. Speaking of the last use, it seems like people inside Space Trucking's cards can still be alive since it also holds air inside.
Usually, Kaato uses this ability for (and it is also designed for) utility uses rather than offensively. Its offensive uses lie in the ability to sneak a surprise attack by revealing objects stored within the cards, as she accidentally hurt her son Joshu Higashikata with a chair or made an unexpected equivalent exchange using New Locacaca beween Tsurugi and Tooru.
