Pardon me.....

Right, so how's this for an 'RV'..........
this was taken about 2 weeks ago, at the top of the 'Monarch Pass' which is a mere 11,312ft above sea level....

Well if you're going for a different type of vehicle, then I think this will top it!

Just recently been playing with a Ford F-350 Super Duty double cab pick up with a 5th wheel conversion (sans 30ft trailer - thankfully). Truck alone is HUGE - it dwarfs a Mitsubishi Canter 7.5tonner!

Engine is huge - 6.0l 32-valve powerstoke v8 570lb/ft and 320bhp - not bad for a diesel Turbo is huge too - although it's only about the same size as the Turbo fitted to the Old shape Bentley Continental-T (single turbo version) .

Best bit is I seen some of these with the boost wound right up, along with the 6pot cummins versions pull a 1/4 mile down a drag strip in 15seconds - highly impressive (as is the smoke show )
