Ok I'm trying to remember what kind of truck this is I just saw.
It's massive.
It looks like GMC type truck, but twice the size of any other truck on the road, resemblant of a semi but it's an actual family vehicle with a truck bed.
Does anyone know what i'm talking about?

I think what you say is an RV hauler, there are several companies making them - International, Freightliner, GMC Kodiak, and I think Ford. Most of these start around $90,000.00 and go way up.

Never seen one of these before. By reading the description I also thought it would be an International CXT

I worked with a guy who had the International...he'd had it custom made with a bed and fridge in the back and would sleep in it when he was on shift. It's the uber-redneckmobile for sure.

I actually did this about 2 weeks, same as Inline. I saw some freakish huge, ford truck on roids cruising down the number 1 and did a big ole "WTF?" -- and it turned out to be one of those F650's. I had no idea there was a market for these mini-semi's i guess you'd call them. Pretty awesome if you ask me. This guy was hauling the biggest boat i'd even seen out of the water.

yea when we saw it my girlfriend looked at me and we were like... wtf was that thing... pretty crazy, mini semi, yea i'd say eh!

A lot of these are used for commerical uses, many people also buy them to pull their uber huge fifth wheels. The top kick is also avalable as a plain frame truck for things like dump trucks and van bodies.

thats exactly what we thought, the uber huge fifth wheels

I still don't understand why people buy a commerical truck for pulling their trailers considering any heavy duty pickup should be able to pull most trailers out there but they do. I seen lots at the campgrounds at pine lake.

If it's yellow, then it's the International. He lives either in the NW or on the outskirts of town. That thing is the biggest waste I've ever seen. He needs at least 4 parking spots at Superstore to fit.

I think those things are fuckin' awesome, especially the Topkick "Ironhide Edition" from Transformers.

They only called it the F650 because focus groups thought "Ford Exclusion" (as in, excluding anyone else from being able to use the road) was a bit uppity.

There are few vehicles I should have to look UP to see the driver in, from my perch in the fire truck.. I should not see soccer moms in those rare cases..

It's got street cred. Ashton Kutcher drives one. I bet he has spinners on it.
