Wouldn't want to get hit by this!

This thing makes a Hummer look like my GTI.

Coming to a "small car only stall" near you. That is just ridiculous, just what the Hummer driving soccer mom crowd needs.

The crazy thing is, they're not marketing it as "the Farmer that needs to tow his equipment" or the "5th wheel hauling machine" but the whole point of it is for "the business man that wants to make a statement" unfreaking believable. This is just so stupid, it's getting out of hand.

On the bright side, I should be able to park my car underneath these bad boys, 2 spots for the price of one =)

I can see it if you're a hillbilly needing to haul around some hay or something.... but someone who drives one of these in the city should be beaten with a stick. Some drivers are dangerous enough with a mid-size SUV... the last thing they need is a semi-truck.

They also have these F650s which seems to be just a bit big for anything really, lets be honest

Can you drive these things with just a class 5? I really can't imagine someone graduating from one of those "student drivers" (we've all seen how scary they are) and picking up one of these things!

Yea, I've seen those type of drivers way to many times. Cruising down crowchild is bad too. What I can't stand, and this has been my pet-peeve for years, is the way cops and many drivers believe that it's speed that is dangerous. Sure speeding can be dangerous.... but I drive better doing 100 and paying attention that many drivers do when they are driving 60..... drinking coffee, on their cell-phone, with a dog in their lap. Look at Europe for example.... no-one there would put up with the brutal drivers we have here.

Aye, Ive been rear ended a couple times (last time was pretty recent and luckily I wasn't hurt) but honestly, nothing is scarier than looking in your rear view when traffic slows on deerfoot and seeing a big-ass dodge 3500 quickly movin' in on your ass..The major problem many people that drive those big ass trucks have is they don't give theirselves enough time to react. You gotta keep like, 5 car lengths when your doing anything over 80 in a truck that big because they DONT stop like a car, no matter how much you paid for it!

These are the ULTIMATE WELDING RIG... Yes you can drive these with just a normal liscense and they are great trucks.....

Re: Wouldn't want to get hit by this!

Christ if either of those had hit me I wouldn't be here writing this!

Re: Wouldn't want to get hit by this!
