Big Dodge

Check this one out.

The Largest Pickup Truck in the World
In the 1990s, Seikh Hamad bin Hamdan Al Nahyan of the United Arab Emirates decided to build a giant pickup truck. The result was a truck modeled on the 1950s era Dodge Power Wagon (apparently an iconic vehicle in his country) precisely 64 times larger than the original. It contains a full suite of rooms and can actually drive. The video clip above is from Jeremy Clarkson’s BBC documentary series Motorworld.

I've seen that before. Very cool.
That guy also built an awesome regular sized dodge about 15 years ago and would have another guy follow him in the dessert everywhere he went with another truck that had almost every single spare part for just incase he broke down.
