This is a pretty cool truck. It was at the North American International Auto Show in 2001. Check it out the damn thing is so tall it needs two sets of running boards!

If that was a concept vehicle it probably got crushed. IMHO.

Maybe they're quietly turning it into a cement mixer as a surprise for me on my 10th anniversary where I work. Ha,I wish.

I have to wonder why FORD, or anyone else for that matter, thinks building a half-million dollar concept vehicle, only to turn around and crush it, is a financially sound manoeuver... :shake:

...and then they turn around and de-content a $6 underhood light from a limited production vehicle... :shake:

I know Ford auctioned off a lot of their concepts this year. Maybe it was one of ones that got auctioned.

Its the F700 Heavy series basicly a Horse trailer hauler for mega size ranches. It could also be 800/900 But thats what that vehicle was built for.

I've seen those around. F-950. Looks like a semi, but without the dual axels, and somewhat smaller.

But what a HUGE truck!

I'm surprised I haven't seen one those in the WalMart parking lot yet. You know you need a vehicle that size when you're carrying your 1.5 kids to soccer practice and dance recitals. Sheish...
