> T. rex has now found its way into the automotive industry.
>
> Found this hard to believe, but a recent automotive magazine includes a
> short article on a beautiful new Dodge truck- the Dodge Ram 6X6 T-Rex. It
> looks like a standard Dodge Ram pickup truck, but with an extra long box
> supported by 4 wheels.
>
> This 6X6 has 6 wheels carried on three axles. It has a stock V-10 engine
> which can generate up to 500 horsepower. Nothing is given on its weight
but
> it looks like a 1 to 1.5 ton vehicle. Too bad Christmas has passed, I
forgot
> to ask Santa for this as a field vehicle!
>
> Can anyone out there verify this is in fact a new model truck or just a
> fantasy concept vehicle? The truck in the photograph looks real, yet the
> article provides no details on cost and availability. I follow the
> automotive industry fairly closely, and this "T-Rex truck" is news to me.
