Thought the outgoing Toyota Tundra model is not aggressive enough compared to a Ford or Chevy equivalent? Take a look at this one and think again.
This black beauty belongs to mixed martial arts and former UFC fighter Jon Fitch, and it’s a perfect match for the kind of business he is into.

His Toyota Tundra rides on a 7-inch coil-over lift kit and massive 20-inch Rolling Big Power wheels with 37-inch tires. It also has a Rolling Big Power grille, custom side steps and aftermarket intake/exhaust systems.

Moreover, to make everything as bold as possible, the whole truck has been wrapped in matte black, and every other element got painted with gloss black.

Since we mentioned the martial arts champ, we find ourselves indebted to talk a little about his background. Jon Fitch may not ring a bell, especially if you’re rather into football or baseball, but we’re more than certain you recall that Myth Busters episode called “Coffin Punch” which aired back in 2008. The MythBusters were attempting to determine if someone could punch their way out of a coffin.

For his part, Jon Fitch laid on his back and punched up into a sensor, attached to a punching bag that was a few inches above Fitch, allowing his arm only three inches of travel before contact with the sensor. We know he is a gifted fighter, but you’ll be quite surprised to find that the boxer’s punch was just under 1,500 pounds of force.

Our point is that one of the most popular trucks in the world sounds quite right for a fellow like this. After all, he's a tough guy, with a lot of reputation to keep so it's no wonder he went for this mean machine. Will he hit the dirt with it? Maybe, or maybe it's just for the show-off.
