Shouldn't the trailer be visible in the bottom pic?
Anyway, there's 1 3x3 cube, 1 2x2 cube, and 10 1x1 cubes, for a grand total of 12 cubes.

Ah, the solution to the equation involving cubes on a truck is a minimum of 31 to maximum of 51.
Well, of course, it's as clear as day to anyone who possesses a three-dimensional artistic vision. You see, one must transcend the mundane confines of ordinary thought and delve into the realm of spatial creativity, much like a sophisticated sculptor visualizing a masterpiece.
It's a mere exercise in spatial cognition, really. Just envision the truck as a canvas and the cubes as intricate geometric sculptures awaiting placement. With a refined understanding of three-dimensional space, one can effortlessly discern the optimal configuration, much like an artist effortlessly visualizes a sculpture before chiseling away at the marble.
Honestly, it's elementary when approached with the right mindset. One need only embrace the elegance of spatial geometry and let one's imagination soar beyond the constraints of mere numbers and equations. After all, true understanding lies not in rote calculations but in the boundless realm of artistic intuition and spatial perception.

Bottom layer is implied 21 as the cubes can’t float.
Top layer only needs 4 cube

Apply the top layer logic to the middle and you will get an answer less than 35 which is why I mention to draw it out. Don’t want to spoil the answer for you
Anonymous at Sun, 24 Mar 2024 01:14:17 UTC No. 16093494
Bottom must be 21 for top to make sense. Side implies at least 6 in the middle and 4 at the top. The cubes can be arranged in a zigzag pattern such that we get the back POV. The lower bound is 31.

With floating cubes the minimum will always be equivalent to the largest side?
I can’t think of a scenario where the minimum would be bigger than largest side.

You can get below 31 without floating boxes. Have 2 3 stacks and 2 2 stacks share bases. Drops the total to 29.

I said without floating. You can conceal offset boxes under and behind the others and use them to support multiple stacks above them.
No floating. No irregularly shaped boxes. No extra props. It's a perfectly fair solution that lowers the minimum from 31 to 29. You just need to think outside the box. Pardon the pun.

51: (7*3) + (6*3) + (4*3).
I have to assume no floating boxes, so I will also assume the illlustrator just can't into perspective.

Assuming that every box is 1x1:

It's possible that 8 boxes could be 3x1 or 2x1, but I'm going to ignore those cases.

new solution: 23 without any floaters
all the blocks could be structurally supported if they are all welded together
🗑️ Anonymous at Mon, 25 Mar 2024 00:58:38 UTC No. 16095229
Each slice can have at most 17 blocks, so the max is 51.
However, the center could be hollow, in this case you only need 9 blocks for the center, this gives 43 blocks total.

One of the sides could also be hollow, though. So 35 could also work.
