Granted, that's a lot of money, but "think of all the activities."

On sale in Bentley, WA – yes that's the actual place – this custom triple-cab 2013 Ford F-650 Super Duty could be just the ticket to a world of possibilities. And fuel bills, if we're being honest.

I'm guessing that those auxiliary fuel tanks aren't for show.

Powered by a turbocharged 6.7 Cummins diesel engine that punches out 705Nm, this 9-seater behemoth it's rated to tow a massive 9,298kg unbraked. Or about four Texan Republicans.

Not to be confused with the smaller-ish Ford F-150, F-250, F-350 or F-450, the F-650 is one of the most adaptable vehicles in the world. As cheesy as it sounds, it's a real hero. While the F-650 seems a bit ridiculous as a 9-seater, its true purpose is its flexibility to be configured into a number of commercial vehicles; it's an ambulance, a fire & rescue truck, a school bus, dump truck, a flatbed, a tow truck and even a snow plow.

Yes, that is the actual steering wheel on this 0,000 vehicle.

It's got a reputation for a being durable, reliable and dependable vehicle that's certainly helped someone, somewhere - maybe even saved their life.

It's an unsung legend that we love to point and laugh at, but in reality, we wouldn't be able to live as comfortably without it.

What do you think of the Ford F-650? Is it an ugly beast of burden or an unloved hero? Tell us what you think below.

James Lisle (aka J3) likes all things cars. Cynical and enthusiastic in equal measure, James loves to clamber into anything with a steering wheel and a decent amount of grunt. Although it may seem the J3 glass is half empty on first acquaintance with a new ride, he maintains a balanced approach and will happily lose himself in technical details relating to even the most common, mass market models. Bore and stroke ratios, specific output stats, and thermal efficiency figures are his guilty pleasures.
