Nervous about our debt ceiling? Fearing that the end of the world is coming in 2012? Worried that zombies are going to attack your town and escape will be futile? We’ve got the answer and in typical BangShift fashion the answer belches black smoke and violates all known bumper height laws. It would be awesome at running over zombies though.
What we have here is the creation of a fertile mind in Louisiana. The trucks is an F-250 crew cab with an F-650 nose, and an F-350 dually bed. It rides on our favorite stupid huge (and stupid expensive) truck tires, 52-inch Michelins. All of this is built on a military deuce and a half chassis and gets power from a performance built, twin turbo, Caterpillar 3208 V8 diesel. It won’t be “fast” by the definition we know and love, but those axles have 6.17 gears in them and there’s an Allison transmission moving the power from the motor to them, so it’ll get around just fine. By that we mean the zombies won’t have a chance to catch you…unless you run out of fuel.
The good news is that the project is not quite finished, so you can button this monster up with your own cool tweaks and own the biggest freaking truck in your state, legally or otherwise.
$42,500 bucks takes this road going rogue home. We imagine that shipping will be a royal biatch and just about as expensive as those Michelins!
Thanks for the tip Paul!

For that money you can get a finished truck with a high level of fit…including that the bad will fit over the tires…This was a poorly thought out project that obviously stalled quite some time ago. Ten grand should get this thing out the door, and five more to move it.
