it looks like photoshop to me.

That's pretty sweet if it's real. But still, way too much money and um, why?

Bigtime.

How would you like to balance, that driveshaft?

 

[NorCalKid]

Look at the link there are other pictures of the truck. Its got a cummins in it

If it had rear steering I'd buy it.

I've seen a white, dually version of this in PHX. Uglier in person!

 

[Pvt. Maggot]

Looks like they chopped a sub and put a bed on the end, would be a cool tow rig I guess. Not much of a fan of the color

 

[Dabba]

way too damn long

needs some rocks and 54'' boggers...imo

I wanna take it wheelin'. Man there would be no place that thing wouldn't go, except maybe over the crest of an ant pile.

 

[blazin_blazer]

i'd like to watch it try potato salad hill....seriously!

Probably not this one from a Jan 7th eBay.... equally weird ( or weirder?) stretch with a mid engine Caterpiller bigrig V8.............. eBay is such a wonderful place, ya just never know what's going to show up sometimes.

From a 4 wheeling perspective, it would probably be great at hill climbs as long as it doesn't high center. It wouldn't surprise me if a truck like walked up Potato Salad like it was nothing.


As a tow rig it probably works well. It has what, 140" wheelbase? Very stable as a tow rig (the Cummins doesn't hurt either ).

It probably sucks to navigate in tight place though

 

[blazin_blazer]

i think it would bottom out behind rear doors on tater salad, and would be hilarious..while others are flippin backards off it!

When's the last time you jumped in a Suburban and thought "hmm...if only I could make this thing 7' longer..."?

not in while... lookin at that driveshaft, not only would it be a PITA to balance, but keeping it out of the rocks sittin all long and low like that...

besides, im suprised to see its from NJ, id have thought texas, they like to build em big there.

 

[noJeepshere]

whats under the hood? a trunk?

 

[ARAMP1]

To each his own. I've thought it'd be cool to put another set of doors on my crew cab, but I have trouble parking it the way it is. But, you couldn't build a truck like that with a P7100 pump 24 valve Cummins for what the current bid is now.

I wonder what the reserve is. I'd guess over $25K.
