This may be the ultimate vehicle for soccer moms. In fact, it’ll fit an entire team.
The Sin City Hustler started its life as a run of the mill Ford Excursion SUV, before Arizona’s appropriately-named Big Toyz Racing (BTR) turned it into a 12-passenger monster truck.
The 32-foot long, 12-foot high SUV is built on a tube frame chassis, and features four-wheel-steering, just like the car-crushing competition trucks BTR also makes.
It rolls on 66-inch tires suspended by 26-inch nitrogen filled shocks, and is powered by a 700 horsepower 521 cubic-inch big block Ford V8.
Entry to the cabin is provided by a private jet-style drop down staircase at the rear, and seating is provided by six deep bucket seats on either side of the center aisle.
BTR originally built the Sin City Hustler to offer off-road thrill rides in the desert near its headquarters, located about an hour away from Las Vegas, but has now put it up for sale for $1 million.
It’s not street legal, but was designed it to be easily broken down for truck or container transport, and is pitching it as an eye-catching promotional vehicle, or a backyard fun machine.
Looking in the comments on these articles, there's a lot of negative comments and I can't figure out why.
It's obviously built for people who either 1) have more money than they know what to do with or 2) looking for a business investment in the Vegas area or somewhere similar.
It's a toy. And people are complaining about it being useless. Good God.
But for some reason the Excursion has always made people do that hasn't it? The X is just an F250 with a cover and some extra seats, but somehow, in it's day, it was considered this gargantuan vehicle that was so big that it was considered irresponsible to own one. Even though a CC pickup was bigger.
It's like, if this was an extended Suburban, everyone would say, "Oooohhh, neat!"

Assuming your back yard is the Mojave Desert.
Favorite part of that 'story'?

"Private" Well, yeah! It's in another damn zip code!
I think it's funny all the "useless" comments I've seen. I mean, every vehicle can be useless to someone. Like to me a Smart car is useless. How am I suppose to pull a 32ft camper with on?? How about a Tractor Jeep? Is that useless? A quad?
It's a neat vehicle to have to give rides for $. Simple as that.

I had the opportunity to meet the guys who built this truck. And to see this truck as it was built, The craftsmanship and skills and attention to detail is very nice. Yea it is not your average driver but to see it function and appreciate the craftsmanship it is very cool.
To give a perspective on size here is my factory sized 59 F250 4x4 next to it.
I like going to car shows to see the craftsmanship, and get ideas, but i wouldn't care to own most of the vehicles there. Just saying
