Yeah the DAA have one out a the airport for a good while. Nearly sure it's a petrol. Looks the biz but I'd say she has a ferocious drinking habit!

Look up Ford F650, makes a F350 look puny.

I drove a Super Duty in the UK earlier this year and it was like driving a tank with wheels. Everyone moves over for you, it's impossible to park anywhere because it takes up 2 spaces and it doesn't fit in the underground if there's any corners on the entry because it's too wide.
I loved it and I've wanted one ever since. It's a proper US truck.

BTW it was the F450 XL he imported it from the US http://www.ford.com/trucks/superduty/trim/?trim=f450xl

Friends of mine had F350's MPG worked out at something like 6-7 mpg, when the petrol price hit $2 a gallon:eek: a few of them opted for the diesel version which got them about 9-12 mpg. (city driving btw for most of the general contractors.)
One thing I do miss is the starting of these type of trucks, what a noise or to hear a 70's charger revving down the street, making a few car alarms go off in the process:D
