[bchcky]

better? yeah better to chill in with you're stuck. i bet that thing has everything but the kitchen sink in it!

 

[mingez]

holy crap that's beyond unnecessary.

 

[stacker46]

it's projected to get between 6 and 10 miles per gallon of diesel fuel.

:shock: All I can say is, "Why?"

 

[L33TJ33P]

I wanna know Which average user (business man/woman) needs 6 tons of hauling capasity.

I wonder which music/athlete star is going to pick this one up first.

i like it but would only want the most basic modle.....would make an awsome work truck!

 

[Joopin]

Max speed 80 mph? Whats the story with that? Oh but it has heated power side mirrors, that makes up for it.

Not all business people wear suits. There are lots of small business owners that would love to have that thing. A contractor, for example, that has heavy equipment to haul could drop the trailer and go straight to see a perspective client......in style.

Overkill? hell yes, and EXPENSIVE too!!

Might look good with some spinna's and some low profile meats.

Actually I think there are alot of contractors that could use a truck like that.

 

[Sully]

I think its cool. But I will never own one.

 

[judge09]

I dont think any contractors would throw the money up on that one. Atleast the ones I know. Usually its called low overhead and max profits.

 

[TwistedCU]

I work with a digging contractor who could haul his big backhoe and his crew in one rig. Don't get me wrong though, they would need a stripped down version with vinyl seats and floors.

 

[L33TJ33P]

Even so, who thinks that Normal sized bed (that is WAY high to load) wold hold 6 tons. 6 ton hauling, I don't know what the towing is. Maybe just fill the back with a Goose-neck hitch.

 

[TwistedCU]

Roofers?

Yeah a fifth wheel for a big trailer would be the best for that monster.

OK boys and girls dont get all bent out of shape here. That is a Camper pulling on the week end trailer pulling over the weel days moster! Order it with that goofy Detroit and Auto transmission out and a Nice 475 Cat with an Eaton Fuller 13 speed transmission and turn the Kitty up a few knotches and you have yourself a Triple Didget Road Tractor! Now yes it may seem high priced but if you are in the need for a real nice puller for that $500,000.00 coustom made Camper rather than a Motor Home that is a dream ride! Or if you just own a large Trucking company and want to drive in style there you go. I am guessing you will need a CDL to drive that puppy and the MPG stated seems kind of high for a bob tail road tractor. I for one would so love to just drive that thing. Sweet and extrem by all streches of the mind!!!! I for one Love it! Of course I could not afford to tune it up and change the oil! hehehe tug

 

[TwistedCU]

Not too many folks can drive a split shift, although Tug - I can and I like the idea!

 

[Tug-n-pull]

That will keep the kids out of it any way! hehehe tug
