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.

    This isn’t really something you see on US roads, unless you replace the bed with a flatbed or box. No normal person owns one of these as a pickup truck.

      Yeah I live right in the middle of farm country and the only time I’ve ever seen this truck is like you said, with a flatbed.

      I’ve seen some ridiculous trucks in my area, but you can always find most of them on a farm being used for actual work.

      I saw one of these attempting to back into a parking spot at home depot a few weeks ago. I’m 6’1, the guy that got out was much shorter than me.
