The Ford F-Series Super Chief. Yikes.

Sure it is a nice truck, but until I can find some specs on it, sounds a little out of reach for what they want out of it. A little better designing on the front end and wheel wells would definitely help it. From this picture, I don't think the aerodynamics will help any fuel mileage anytime soon, even with the hydrogen cell. I guess I'll have to look into it further, or until Ford puts out a little more coverage on this truck. Anyone know of any sites that tell anything about this truck?

It was purely a concept and there was no price listed. Its got suicide doors too which are kind of interesting.

But the thing is such a monsterous beast that it will never go to the market, and if it does, it will be made by request i think, like the saleens.

no, i dont think so, cuz last night there was a show on SPEED that talked about the north american auto show, and they said the three fuels...so yeah...could always be wrong though, but im about 95% sure it was those three

I asked the guy who was presenting it. The truck is not meant to be a retail sort of thing. Its meant to be made specifically for the person. Its like a limosine but a truck.

Its got TVs, a full wet bar, swivel reclining seats, etc...
It should/will be made to spec of what the buyer asks for
