Don’t they just love long-wheelbase everything in China! Even vehicles which you would not have thought of get turned into extra-long stretched monsters. Take this Ford F650 which has been stretched.
By how long? Well, it now measures a whopping 20 meters (65 ft) - keep in mind that a regular city bus measures no more than 12 meters (39 ft).
We say that while such a machine is a really spectacular sight, and one to behold, it’s not what one would call practical or easy to drive. In fact, it is probably the most cumbersome thing in the world to drive on a public road, in a city, where you have curbs, sharp corners, narrow streets and various other obstacles.
Another question we have posed ourselves is why would somebody build such a thing and what would they really need it for? It is a slap to the face for green activists everywhere - if Greenpeace sees this, then it will probably be set on fire very shortly after!
