It’s got nothing on an F650 super truck. I’ve driven past one on I35 outside of San Antonio, TX.
For a size reference, here’s Doug DeMuro, 6’3” (1.9m):
How many bananas tall is Doug?
...when it absolutely, positively, has to measure fuel economy in gallons per mile...

this legit looks like a semi, but for people with tiny genitals
These are medium and heavy duty trucks, they're like semi-lite lol (semi-semi?)
They make a lot more sense in literally any configuration other than pick-up truck.
Example:
"Semi trailer" actually refers to the trailer itself, not the tractor. a "full trailer" has it's own steer axle, think like a hay wagon. a "semi trailer" has it's steer axle provided by the tractor pulling it. a "cart trailer" is like 2 wheeled buggies put half the weight on the propulsion device, often a horse. Anyways, when people say "semi truck", they either don't know or are referring to the fact of what it pulls, not itself....use it to pull anything else and it is no longer a "semi tractor"
True , forgot about that. Then again, how often do you see that type of truck pull anything other than a semi trailer? I don't think I ever have
More like a commercial vehicle….
Trucks actually started selling more when the first started mimicing the looks of semis. I think dodge was one of the first to adopt that mindset which was basically everything on the front end gets bigger.
the tiny dicked people are all around us then!
It’s a class 6 medium duty work truck converted to a passenger truck.
