Biggest Pickup Ever

Many years ago, I conceptualized a truck much like that one, but my truck had a bed just big enough for a lunchbox and a set of blueprints. My new model was to be called "The Boss." It's funny how the people on construction sites who use the most tools and haul the most materials have the smallest trucks.

7 mpg on Diesel!
What a pig.
If I wanted A big truck like that, and had an extra 100k lying around, I think I would get a Mercedes Unimog.
I believe they get better mileage, and you aould customize into a really cool Baja Rig

I've seen quite a few of those

over in Puerto Pe?asco, Sonora. There are a few different manufacturers I believe because of the different styles.
They use them to pull their Fifth Wheel trailers from Minnesota, Az, and Canada according to the plates I have seen.
They were all old guys too, no quads in the back. I have yet to see one in Baja norte or sur.

Unimog

Taco - there's a used and looks to be in origional military shape Unimog for sale in Yuma. Across from Fry's grocery. Asking $8000 or offer. Been there a while 2-3 months - so maybe a reasonable bid would get it.
