📰 Auto News Because a Ford Expedition isn't big enough

[Dasfinc]

You need one of these:

at 25,999lbs, it makes the international CXT seem dwarf-like at only 10,000lbs.

*International pic and specs below, not Fords*

The 2007 International MXT goes on sale in the summer of 2006, with a base price of $69,900. Optioned up, a loaded MXT can cost as much as $85,000. If you’ve got a thing for the new MXT and a wad of cash burning a hole in your own pocket, call 1-888-44-TRUCK and place an order for one of the 1,500 units that International plans to build annually.

If you really wanted to be ballin', some 40" rims would fill up those wheel wells nicely


Sadly, I have seen 40's on a donk.

HAHA, is this thing going to meet the new CAFE standards, or will they have to build a car that gets 100mpg just to offset it?

no, they'll build and destroy 10 ford focus's to make up for it, thats why car manufactorers make 'loss leaders' like the focus/colbalt/etc. Most car companies make little/no money off compact cars here in the states, especially domestic companies, thats why american car companies like building trucks and SUV's so much, cheap to make and sell for a bunch.

I'm sure its like the model T's slogan "You can have it in any color, so long as its black"

but instead it will be "You can have it however you'd like it, so long as its silver, 13 tons, and you accept that fact that it clubs baby seals."

 

[ChrisRac]

Shit, that thing is re-cock-u-lous.

 

[Nasty93]

Seriously,
What the fuck is the point in this thing?

 

[bluzohh6]

I think it would kick ass to have one of those

 

[Dasfinc]

Seriously,
What the fuck is the point in this thing?

To prove how much more money you make to your neighbors and to help destroy the enviroment.

 

[espresso8097]

I will be afraid when I see some soccer-mom driving one.

 

[Nasty93]

isnt the cxt RIGHT at the legal limit for needing a CDL?

Diesel does have strict limitations, but at like 10mpg its still gonna be ripping through our dwindling supplies of fuel.
