Just the thing for towing a very large caravan.

UPDATE: Video of the Alton F-650 is available after the jump
click above for high-res gallery of the Alton F-650 XUV
We've seen some outrageous F-650-based vehicles like this before (the DeBerti for one), but for some reason, the Alton F-650 XUV jumped out at us at the Chicago Auto Show. Perhaps we were already focused on Ford's Work Solutions trucks in the vicinity, but this insane beast just put our DSLRs on autopilot. 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. Oh, you'll also get bragging rights for the biggest, baddest truck in 99% of the world's neighborhoods.

Now THAT'S what I call a motorshow... unlike our p!ssy little lamington stall in Brisbane
...plenty of stuff that just makes your jaw hit the ground and you just think "WTF were they thinking?!!?"![]()
If you click the photo it takes you to a gallery.
OMFG the interior looks like a pimply teenager got his mits on it, absolutely tasteless.
