Good to rent out with a driver for business and social events. Don't get me wrong I would like one just like I would not mind a Ford GT but yeah. NOT PRACTICAL!!!

Gross Vehicle Weight Rating, dude. That means the most cargo this vehicle can carry and pull behind it can't exceed 26,000 lbs. At this GVWR it's called a "class 6" vehicle. Any more than this and you'd need a commercial driver's lecense. By the way, most class 6 commercial vehicles have less power: Between 190 - 215 hp. These include large van bodies that typically deliver the furniture to your door. So, just as an example becasue I don't know how heavy this is, let's say this behemoth weighs 15,000 lbs. empty (which is fucking retarded, in my mind, but the idiocy and overconsumption of Americans isn't the point here), then you can handle another 11,000 lbs. of cargo and trailer. This vehicle borders on pornographic in it's consumption to build and operate. There is absolutely no reason it should've been designed and offered other than corporate greed. Ford (I love Ford trucks) and anyone contemplating buying one ought to be ashamed. That’s 26,000 lbs. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating, dude.
