A cab with $999,500 strapped under the dash, lol

Good looking truck though! That's an interesting licence plate it has too...

"Priced to sell" but the reserve isn't met at $9500.00. Wow. Out of our league.

"Million Dollar Cab" was the moniker used by Ford to tout their new cab design. The garden water faucet **** for the heater line on the engine is a classy touch.

Back in 1948, Ford advertised they spent a million dollars in the design and engineering of the new cab, so they called it their "Million Dollar Cab." That's probably close to 20 million in today's dollars, and they did it without CAD.
