to this show looking for answers oh my God shots on bags too that doesn't make sense why are these trucks so big on 6'4 who's driving them is this yours why are the horns facing backwards I still don't understand why they're facing this way why are the tailpipes so big we got dual watermelon pipes look at that how do you get in here who needs that many speakers in a truck and most importantly what is the craziest truck here today I'm going to talk to the builders Behind These insane trucks to find out for myself the first truck that caught my eye was Gabe's massive Ford F-450 it's pretty freaking sick up here this truck is certifiably insane Gabe how tall is this thing 11 foot to the roof yeah I've seen a lot of bags I haven't seen ones this big okay so you pulled off I brought the sway bars a couple times jumping in on a motocross track six yeah yeah I don't understand this he says it's his daily driver it literally is I'm not I can't say it's not cool it's clear that gay put a ton of work into this thing and it's pretty cool that he actually drives it I appreciate it man but some of these trucks look like they've never been driven like this one which doesn't even have a steering wheel to make way for more speakers holding truck bed you hear the echo it's just me talking so what's the speaker setup can you run by there are 12 15 inch subwoofers we have seven alternators here doing 425 amps per alternator takes 50 horsepower just to spin all those things can we set it off no hell no I'm getting a thing no you guys are out of here all right all right all right all right all right all right thank you I gotta leave oh dude I don't even know what it's hit man it's insane it moves your whole body you can feel like in your chest like that now that our ears are a little bit more settled let's look at some other trucks like these Barbie trucks I literally cannot believe how much time and money went into a pair of Barbie themed bro dozers how long did it take you to build this thing three months this Jeep has 30 inch forged wheels CNC cut Louis Vuitton exhaust Stacks a Cummins 4bt diesel engine swap they even developed a custom suspension setup for this truck using bypass bag shocks these relocate the shock absorbers on top of the airbags instead of using separate mounting points either love it or they hate it they love her they hate it oh my God there's another Barbie truck in the back of mine it says no Barbie no party no I wanted to have them somewhere but a little different okay I got a question why do you guys point the train horns backwards is it just to let people know after you run them over than it is for the people this is an insane truck you I mean you know that yeah this is insane but somehow these still aren't the most outrageous trucks here we've seen some big trucks we've seen some loud trucks but by far the flashiest truck I've seen at SEMA is this Christian in the ski world I'm known as neon Dion All right so I'm here with neon Dion what do we got going on here what is this this is a 2003 Ford Excursion used to be my daily driver okay now I hear the inside of this is pretty wild can you check out the inside inside's iridescent leather oh my God how did they do this this isn't Wild you want people to see you huh my God you got the dog with you her name is Chanel I've heard a lot of guys who have these type of truck as their daily drivers I don't like why just because it's not my daily driver no not anymore it's only a show truck okay just show traffic princess I mean this thing's pretty sick man this is by far I think the flashiest truck I've seen here you've won the flashiest award nice neon Dion my whole I guess uh Mission here was to come to SEMA and kind of wrap my head around all these big truck builds and like why guys do it each guy I talk to I'm starting to get it we just car guys we just like building stuff it's like yeah and you know it's fun thanks Donna after spending time around all these trucks yeah dude oh dude dude I think I'm starting to understand it a little bit dude there's something about it like you see these on videos and pictures and you're like oh that's stupid but when you're up close and personal to them they're like yeah man I'm starting to get it I'm starting to understand a little bit it's stupid but it's pretty fun but I still need to know which truck here is truly the most insane we've got some lifted trucks loud trucks we've got a lot of flashy trucks now we got a fast truck inside this 58 Chevy is a 6.7 liter diesel with not one not two but three turbos on it making over a thousand horsepower we've seen a lot of trucks here that aren't necessarily functional people don't drive them very much but this thing is destined for the race track he built this just slanging around some corners pretty sick speaking of insane trucks our friends over at hoonigan built this Honda Ridgeline with a freaking IndyCar motor in the bed now they were going to fire this truck up for me but apparently it takes anywhere from 30 to 45 minutes to prep the engine every time they started also while I was here I took a ride in donut shop manager Adam canapix drift car he competes in Formula Drift Prospect and he uses it to sell t-shirts [Music] foreign was supposed to shoot a promo video while inside the car but I hit record at the broncon now back to the trucks we've seen some big trucks but have you seen a mini monster truck built for an 11 year old kid this might be one of the most Bonkers things I've ever seen because one it's so nice is a custom two-frame chassis monster truck rear wheel steer 1100 horsepower this is actually a monster truck they took a monster truck and shrunk everything down so it's got monster truck axles that are cut smaller monster truck style tires custom exhausted they manufactured custom suspension setup and it's also two hundred thousand dollars all these tubes were bent using this machine right here is a fully mechanized Tony Stark Style 2 Bender that's super precise and super quick they can pump these things out in no time they said I could drive one you guys want to see me drive this thing leave a comment down below what should I run over with this thing it's completely Bonkers it's one of the craziest things here but still not the craziest thing I've seen yet now some people Overland and they do it really small scale heck we've built an Overlander ourselves but this is an Overlander okay so behind me is the 27 North Ascender this is an 18 000 pound off-road machine they start with a stock F550 and then build this thing up it's like a yacht it's nuts they put this proprietary skin on it so this is like a Linux but it's got kevlar in there it won't tell me how it works I tried proprietary or this prevents scratches and stuff and gives it more durability bulletproof glass of Windows they build these custom steel bumpers and spray them as well look at these freaking things insane custom sound system and lights and all that stuff but here's the thing the opulence the real executive level stuff is on the inside oh my gosh dude this is nicer in my house for the water filtration you can literally take sewer water yeah and make a drinkable water oh that's good yeah this is turning into a house show welcome my crib is is a 27 North Ascender I got Walnut freaking cabinets and uh what is this Granite you said Granite stainless steel fridge you know you know how we do look at this leather seats custom Walnut inset right here everything runs off on iPad oh and you're probably wondering well how much does this cost me 1.2 million dollars now that's camping baby a million dollar camper is cool but at the end of the day that's not why I came here I got a fever and the only prescription is lifted trucks I came here for lifted chromed out big wheeled coal rollers and I think I finally found the Holy Grail so behind me I have Poppy's Ram 5500 2021 Dodge Ram cool thing about this truck not only is it half six wheels but it has six wheel steer sink turns like a monster truck but it's got two extra Wheels it's crazy insane this sensor right here runs to an adreno board in the back of the cab and allows for one-fifth a degree of rotation so they can keep this thing perfectly aligned it can be totally independent from the front wheels or the same as the front wheels and it's all run with an app on your iPhone why let's go use an iPhone to steer some Wheels foreign no big deal so this is by far the craziest truck we found at SEMA and they didn't build one of them they built two of them they drove them down to our offices here at donut so we're gonna go take them for a spin and the best place he would drive a truck like this this the streets of LA is there a car right there yeah there we go that one's like natural how do you see over the hood the stuntiest car possible wow after driving one of these I think I finally get it now later guys [Applause] I just did this thing oh man
