CL find: CC 4x4 dually on big rig wheels

Not a Ford, but dad-gum this truck is totally cool:

One-of-a-kind Monster Truck Turbo Cummins' Diesel!!!!

I totally, completely don't need a truck like this, but it would sure convince a lot of people that I was insecure in my manhood (not that there's anything wrong with that)!

impressive to get that kind of millage from such a TALL and BIG truck

(if he is telling the truth wonder if he would let you drive it a few weeks to make sure before you paid him)

Hah I wouldn't drive a chevy/dodge hybrid for a day. There are some things in life I don't have to try to know I wouldn't like. That thing must have 1.22 gears hope you don't want to haul anything with it.

"One of a kind" except for the fact it seems like a picture of a truck along those lines shows up every few weeks!

I do have to wonder why that ugly shade of orange though??

I also like it. The cab is the same as the 1-ton CC, just has the bigger truck front end sheetmetal. It is only 2wd and not a 4x4 though it would be good for trailer pulling. The 12v Cummins are great engines. The problem in the older Chevys is the engine length, the firewall needs to be cut to let the engine sit back enough for the radiator and intercooler to fit up fornt. This one appears to have the firewall cut out and a new section formed, hard to tell in the one interior pic.

I saw one at a Wal-Mart once, like that, but a reg. cab, and a nice dark blue color. I have a pic of it.

Had a 6-71 Detroit in it. I talked to the guy abit. Was a nice truck.

Yeah I hear ya I had a 65 2 1/2 6x6 double dually dump truck with 460 engine. It was neat but one of those rigs that was a 150 dollar a ride because everytime you drove it something would brake. I had to make a special airhose and compressor setup to run from my truck to tow it because the airbrakes, lol you had to turn off the compressor and open a ball valve to stop that was fun. Haha it got 2 mpg had a 10 yard bed took about 5 gallons of hydraulic oil it was cool my friend still has it
