2007 Ford F-650 by Deberti Designs

[PrelateBishop]

So I was watching an old show today (SEMA: After Hours 2006 : hosted by Chip Foose) because a.) it was in HD and b.) it had cool cars in it. Anyway, they showed the Deberti 6x6.

It's called a 6x6 because:

Based on the Ford F-650 that features six-wheel drive, the Deberti version has been stretched to seat six and adds six video screens to make it an even 6x6x6 (sign of the devil's truck!).

You can find out more about it here and here.

Man, that's just silly (but interesting).

hahah yeah! talk about overkill. its like the SUV made from a semi truck

 

[Riverhound777]

The guy who had his hummer vandalized needs to get one of those. Make sure it has kevlar tires so they can't slash them.

 

[So]

Wow, that's egregious.

I've called F350s "Land Battleships" before...this is a land Dreadnought.

 

[Safeway]

That's just overkill.

This thing is awesome, but where would you park it?

It's not a 6X6, but they probably do know that, and are just stretching the truth a tad for the 666 marketing slogan.

I saw an episode of Unique Whips a few weeks ago where they redid a f650.

No wonder Ford is behind in fuel efficiency. It is spending money designing useless trucks like this, instead of working to reduce our dependancy on foreign oil.

to be fair this is a "mod" of the F650

the 650 is not a truck the avarage person should be buying. it is a work truck for limited places.

Oh the ignorance...


Meh they probably decreased the payload size and towing with those wheels etc.

yeah, that happens all the time....

btw, that truck is ridiculously stupid

 

[paulxcook]

Doesn't 330 horsepower seem a bit low for a monster like this?

 

[LordMorpheus]

"A 330-hp Caterpillar engine and Allison automatic do what they can to move the DeBerti Designs F-650, and we wish them all the luck in the world."

hahaha

It's a Cat diesel, though, it probably has enough torque to stop the rotation of the earth in 6th gear.
