I remember seeing those a lot when I lived in the US. But the real monsters are the double-axles. I found it hilarious that there was literally nothing Nissan 1400-sized anywhere.

I prefer the Dodge Ram, though.

Don't get me wrong, it's kind of cool that you like bakkies but the F150 is a bit like the hummer - a small dick, douche mobile.

wow...lots of small dicks out there since it was the vehicle sold the most globally at one time.

You can get an F150 if you ask a dealership to get one in for you from Europe/UK (right hand drive + kph speedo). I've seen a couple people driving them, especially in the East of Joziburg (no jokes :p). However, you can order the more sporty F150 "Raptor" or even the heavily obtusely upgrade of that, the "velociraptor"

We don't have it here because it's just too damned big for our roads! ;)

You have to have a Code 10 licence to drive it, just to begin with....:(

I think you are confusing it with the F250. The F150 was never sold here in recent times. The only reason they don't sell it here is it will be in competition with the Ford Ranger.

They only ever sold the F250's here... and it was never close to R 2mil.

You do know we're talking about the F150 right. You are aware as noted before a few was sold in SA. And can be purchased second hand. That Raptor I linked is an F150 for sale in SA for almost R 2bar

but the raptor is a unique F150 that is built for off road speed. watch Top Gear US S01E02 or 03 to see it in action. what a truck!
