Ford Alton F 650 XUV

ford-alton-xuv
We've seen some outrageous F-650-based vehicles like this before (the DeBerti for one), but for some reason, the Alton F-650 XUV jumped out at us at the Chicago Auto Show. Perhaps we were already focused on Ford's Work Solutions trucks in the vicinity, but this insane beast just put our DSLRs on autopilot. The F-650-based XUV was built by Alton Manufacturing and carries a GVWR of 25,999 lbs. That makes the 660 ft-lbs of torque generated by its 7.2L Caterpillar engine seem paltry. Besides the big-rig-meets-Excursion bodywork, your nearly $200,000 expenditure for this XUV will get you hardwood floors, custom captains chairs, a 42-speaker sound system, two drop-down 16-inch TVs plus a 42-inch plasma, four computer workstations, plus a train horn. Oh, you'll also get bragging rights for the biggest, baddest truck in 99% of the world's neighborhoods

Barricade Saleen

Barricade_Saleen_Mustang
The movie Transformers that was released in 2007 featured the 2007 Saleen S281 for the character Barricade. It was a police car in the movie and as its popularity grew, so did the demand for it. Saleen did create a limited edition model Saleen that had the likeness to the car in the movie. However, since it was a police car serious modifications had to be made. In the movie, the side of the car says "Police" the one Saleen released said "Saleen". Also, instead of "9-1-1" on the back bumper it said "4-1-1" and of course there were no sirens or the flashing light on the roof either.
