The description of it is a bit misleading. It is most certainly not one of a kind. There is a company that makes these out of a standard 2.5 or 5 ton (depending on what the buyer wants).

Here is another for half the price of that one: http://ccsurplus.com/content/custom-197 ... -rebuild-0

wow, that is cool, thing is with both of these trucks, if they still have that "lighting" speed of the normal Military trucks, it would kinda suck.

The larger tires give them a slightly higher speed, but nothing to write home about.

Holy crap, that thing is awesome. And all for less than a brand new 3500 will cost you. My hunting buddy is looking for a new hunting rig for us to use...

It should do 60+ with the 53" tires (stocks were around 36"). With 53's they normally will cruise at 55 without any issues.

Whats the speed limit for big rigs there? Here in CA if you are towing you can only go 55, even when the limit is 70 for regular vehicles.

And well, in that thing, people can honk all they want. He with the biggest vehicle wins the race.

with some thing like that, you'll eventually catch them "at the light", would be cool to come real close to them then. Truckers down here go 70-80. folks towing trailers go about that same speed. It it legal, maybe not but here in the pan handle, they are a little slack.
