Hey, German here. What the f*** are Americans doing at the other side of the Atlantic? Some of you already know this monstrosity. I did’nt. This is a Ford F650 Truck and when I stepped out of my Youtube Bubble I realized, it was marketed as the “biggest, baddest Truck on the road” for the everyday American. Are you guys serious?! Is the end goal really to drive a Monster Truck to McDs to get a McFlurry? Americas bloodiest wars have been fought in the middle east to secure oil, bombing nations to rubble. And all, for this bullshit? The excess, waste and decadence is mind boggling to me and people on Reddit seriously justifying this by “you know dude I’m 6,4ft. I don’t fit in any other vehicle” makes me go up the wall.

      If you did it wouldn’t look like this. Because most would be outfitted with a flat bed tow truck or have a box on the back. When you buy this vehicle from Ford it is a cab only. And you take it to a place to build out the rest.

      You see these all the time, but they don’t look like this because they’re only sold commercially. Normally you see a truck box, a big tool rack/cherry picker, or a bus compartment. These are low-volume models that are designed and sold for purposes that actually require these trucks. This truck bed was a custom body job and this vehicle is probably a marketing/promotion model. No one’s driving these around as their daily commuters, I doubt very many of these are even owned privately. OP is just just trying to start a disinformation circle-jerk
