The bigger Dodge and G.M are gaining popularity....

Actually, its an F-650, and they aren't made by ford... they are a custom built unit (from a donar 450 i think)... see here:
LINK But There are many more companies out there doing this conversion now...

You guys realise they are used for mostly for towing? Usually a race car or a dragcar or similar.
They are far and away not useless when used in that manner on Interstate trips. Its no more useless than driving a four door sedan when you're the only passenger.

of topic but the sand on that beach is very hard, it's got probably near 3 ton on it and hardly any tracks. The beaches around hear are very soft and your tires have to be about 14lbs to get off.
