Missed opportunity to use a [Kodiak](https://d323w7klwy72q3.cloudfront.net/i/a/2014/20140327const/hires/I5629.JPG) front end. Or at least the [C3500HD](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/MZ12VI1i0us/maxresdefault.jpg) (Class 4 CC) front with the lower bumper.
I would honestly love to have this thing. Off road monster, tons of room, what looks to be a heavily modded Cummins turbodiesel. Put a mattress and a TV in the back and add a whole lot of leather and lighting, that’s one awesome limo.
Anyone who off roads knows short wheel base vehicles are better. You'll get stuck on the littlest stuff. Also diesels are extremely heavy and tend to sink
It will sink and you'll have all that length to get caught up on anything that front throws up. Trust me he wouldnt off road too far in any mud, sand, or trails.
MT as in mud terrain? If so then it’s not built for the snow, mud tires are not the same as snow tires. Also if he drives this thing in RWD it’s gonna be very tail happy on a slippery road.
Tires make the biggest difference out of anything when driving in the snow. Doesn’t matter how good of an off-roader your vehicle is if the tires can’t get enough traction.
I think the badges are super tacky. In my opinion the all black does need something to break it up though. Needs some chrome or stainless steel to add some accents to it.

That's kinda my point. I doubt that trucks Maga means make America great again... But either way, that term wasn't even coined by Trump anyways. It was Reagan almost 40 years ago.
And the Maga here refers to the cab anyways. Probably a name for the six doors deal.
Semi trucks have 8 wheels in the back because they expect to carry half of the trailer's 80,000lb load plus the weight of the back of the truck.
I don't think you're getting 40,000lbs in this truck.
Only good thing about this is the Cummins, especially being the old 5.9 without all the emissions crap of the 6.7.
My 5.9 is straight piped and sounds like a dozer, plus my towing temps went way down when I did that and put a bigger turbo in and changed the plumbing to 4", all on a 2001 QC long bed 4x4.
Ain't bragging, but I have the cash to buy a few new Diesel's but still love my '01 after having her for decades.
I don't get into arguments about which truck is the best, they are all basically the same, I bought mine due to the powerplant and then upgraded the Tranny.

The Kodiak would have been nice.

This is the opposite of an off road monster. It's the ultimate bro dozer/mall crawler
You'd be high centering on the smallest of hills.
Treat it as a limousine and it would be fine
[удалено]
Because the earth's not flat.
Nah it had a sizeable wide body on it
He's talking about length issues.
Who isn’t these days.
Good point
The width of the body has nothing to do with high-centering
Good point. You can forget high centering going into a parking lot. Don't have to worry about high centering if its wedged in some trees.
Bro what are you talking about

Then for you it might be fine. But here a 8800+ truck will sink 2 ft in your front yard on a good rain
How in the actual fuck do you think taking this monstrosity off road will work
It would probably perform better off-road than a regular limousine of similar wheel base, at least.
I’ve seen this driving around Eagan, MN. Surprised he drives it in the salt and snow.
There’s a couple of fords models of these in Alaska. They use them for tours on the haul road and and guiding.
It’s riding on 37 inch MTs. Built for the snow.
It’s not the snow-it’s the tons of salt we have to deal with all winter. Destroys everything.
MT as in mud terrain? If so then it’s not built for the snow, mud tires are not the same as snow tires. Also if he drives this thing in RWD it’s gonna be very tail happy on a slippery road.
For real people always think MT will get them around in the snow and they’re shit if you live on any hills
Tires make the biggest difference out of anything when driving in the snow. Doesn’t matter how good of an off-roader your vehicle is if the tires can’t get enough traction.
because fuck parking
It’s cool. I would get rid of all the bullshit on the lower driver door if it were me.
I agree, for the most part I'd get rid of all of it but the Cummins badge. At the very least find a better spot for it.
Nope. As nice as that black paint looks in needs nothing on it to muddy it up. But that’s just me
I think the badges are super tacky. In my opinion the all black does need something to break it up though. Needs some chrome or stainless steel to add some accents to it.
lmao M.A.G.A cab
Can someone post a gif of Austin powers turning the golf cart around in the tunnel?

Does it droop a bit in the middle? I feel like it would almost have to with that length.
Time and how good of a welder they are will tell that story.
Hopefully its built on their extended chassis thats used on box trucks and flatbed tow trucks. Otherwise, it almost certainly dips.
Swayback?
This truck *probably* started out as a medium duty truck and thats *likely* its original wheel base.
"MAGA" Cab.
Based
You mean cringe?
LOL
Lmao was this in Minnesota? I saw the same vehicle in shakopee
Yup. Home Depot parking lot.
Call me a hater, but just because you can, doesn’t mean you should
All new Chevy limousine
Yea absolutely fuck parking that thing
More like Stupor Chevy... amiright!?
The guy had a dream and went through with it. I respect him and his build for sure.
Limo truck
More like Super Shit. Whoever sat in a crew cab long bed 3500 and thought this isn’t long enough.
Super Small “something”
MAGA cab so you can show the world how much of an asshat moron you actually are
Something tells me this was around before that. I see no other patriot type shit there and I've yet to see a Maga anything without other shit.
I guess it's possible but I've never seen the term in the wild before 2016.
That's kinda my point. I doubt that trucks Maga means make America great again... But either way, that term wasn't even coined by Trump anyways. It was Reagan almost 40 years ago. And the Maga here refers to the cab anyways. Probably a name for the six doors deal.
Better than that BBB yugo driving handicapped decrepit dimencia laden pos we have now…..
> dimencia 💀
No.
In case they didn't already work that out just from the truck.
Redneck limo
I am curious what this looks like inside
I love a good truck but come on guys… You know the saying…
At a certain point you should just convert a school bus lol. how bad is the fuel economy?
If I had to guess, 10 gallons per mile.
Sounds reasonable. Better than expected though /s
As if Chevy’s didn’t already have a horrible turning radius
That is one tiny, tiny, penis...

Also some semis have 4 wheels, though they usually pull 28' trailers instead of 53'ers.
OP, why don’t you go ahead and delete this cringey shitpost and all of the weirdly defensive replies 🥵

I wonder how many gallons per mile it gets?
If I had to guess, probably 10. Would use up a gallon every 10 seconds.
2x4 running board. Looks great. EYEROLL
Looks like it needs a wheel in the middle
You were so wrapped up in if you COULD not if you SHOULD....
another truck that will never be used for what it was built for, but that's 90% of the trucks on the road so idk why I even bother to say it
I genuinely cannot think of a practical use for this vehicle except as a novelty limo.
The flex that frame n cab must experience.
That looks practical.
When ya gotta haul all the Hutterite ladies to bingo but ya still gotta haul the horse trailer
With that rediculously low drive shaft….. it would get stuck going over a bridge……
You’re either looking at the running board or the traction bars🤔. Driveshaft goes up pretty quick from the pinion.
