Sure, a Mercedes-Maybach 6 Concept pickup truck rendering seems like the work of an artist who's on the wrong pills. Then again, let's take a moment to think of the original concept - do the world really need a six-meter long coupe?
The answer to that questions is obviously a big, fat "no" and also gives us a good occasion to remind you of the actual dimensions of the concept that might just see Maybach finally being revived as a brand instead of an add-on badge for Benz vehicles.
The Six sits at 5,700 mm (224.4 in) in length, 2,100 mm (82.6 in) in width, and is 1,328 mm (52.2 in) tall, while offering two-plus-two seating.
Well, Hungarian artist X-Tomi has decided to stretch things way past the six-meter point, adding a bed to the thing. And with the German automaker set to introduce its first pickup truck, the tentatively-named GLT, on October 25, the timing for this pixel rearrangement seems perfect.
In fact, we might've found a perfect use for such a "blue collar" machine, even though such a path would require a few mods for the bed. To be more precise, any eccentric owner could use suck a truck to travel between cities, with a smart car being loaded in the back.
Then, the Rolls-Royce-defying truck could be parked on the outskirts of the city, with the smart being invited to take it from there. As for the electric powertrain of the concept, such a scheme would offer a perfect opportunity for recharging.
And if this whole story seems a little crazy, you should know that's how the Internet works these days. Perhaps it's time to remind you of some even wilder renderings out there, such as this dismantled Porsche 911 GT3 RS PDK, which has been turned into a Chevy-animated drag racer. Too much to handle? Here's a real-world Porsche Cayman with a Ford Mustang Coyote 5-liter V8 engine swap.
