Stacks fruit vehicles (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rickshaws

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'vehicles' is the definition.
(rickshaw is a kind of vehicle)

'stacks fruit' is the wordplay.
'stacks' becomes 'ricks' (rick is a kind of stack).
'fruit' becomes 'haws' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'ricks'+'haws'='RICKSHAWS'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rickshaws that I've seen before include "Small two-wheeled carts for single passengers" , "Eastern two-wheeled carts for passengers" , "Passenger carts pulled by runners or cyclists" , "Man-powered transporters" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
