For the suburban man who truly has too much money, I present the:



Alton F650 XUV


The F-650-based XUV was built by Alton Manufacturing and carries a GVWR of 25,999 lbs. That makes the 660 ft-lbs of torque generated by its 7.2L Caterpillar engine seem paltry. Besides the big-rig-meets-Excursion bodywork, your nearly $200,000 expenditure for this XUV will get you hardwood floors, custom captains chairs, a 42-speaker sound system, two drop-down 16-inch TVs plus a 42-inch plasma, four computer workstations, plus a train horn.

For $200,000 I'd rather buy 10 Vtec Mini's or anything other than this land tank for homo sapien, vegrandis phallus.

holy 'mercan consumption, batman! why, just why? damn right it needs a train horn, you'll have to have it towed by a diesel electric train engine when it breaks down. and we know it will break down since it's a ford.


i dig the simpler lay out. i'll be tapping you for blog ad related ?s in the nearish future too.
