Yup, PeterBuilt makes some damn good trucks.
12 cylinder diesel fun...
Garbage trucks are not as stylish nor do they have the same horsepower a Big-Rig does. (inline 8's are typical but never any bigger.) And they're not meant for anything over 70mph due to their screwed up transmissions.
However most of them are typically lighter International's with special bodies mounted onto their rear.
No style, no room, and slow and as unmanueverable as a cow on roller skates.
At least with rigs you can get an extended cab and some decent "living" area. (A bed with 12 square feet of floorspace and an overhead locker area.) I've seen some damn nice setups in those. (Microwave and mini-fridge in one corner, mini-tower, monitor, and a regular TV in the other.
And that's not mentioning the direct TV mounts on the outside of his truck under the air-deflector. Just point his truck relatively north-facing and figure out where the satalites are and boom, 200 stations (and internet) anywhere in the nation.
But since I hate driving something I can't see the rear of, I'll have to go with Grey Wolf's idea. A sweet as mustang, and a small harem. (Don't want too many, pin too many people together long enough an they go crazy.)
But if we're talking pure crazyness with our shopping power, there was this episode of Speed Racer with 'The Mammoth Car". Something like, 300 feet long, 20 wide, super-reinforced body and axles, every segment of it had two V-12's powering the wheels...
Ahh, too many cartoons all vieing for ranking positions in my mind.
And to blow stuff up, I'd get a Maus II.
(1,000 ton german tank that never made it off the drawing board, or concept stages. Would have had two 14" guns as it's main weapons with smaller anti-aircraft turrets at the rear...)
