World’s biggest monster truck has four bedrooms, kitchen & bathrooms

THE world’s biggest monster truck includes four air-conditioned bedrooms, a kitchen and a bathroom.

And it belongs to Sheikh Hamad bin Hamdan – a member of one of the United Arab Emirate’s ruling families, the Al Nahyan clan.

Sheikh Hamad holds the Guinness World record for the largest collection of 4×4 vehicles at 718 models.

And he has been nicknamed the Rainbow Sheikh for owning seven Mercedes S-Classes in different colours.

He’s a billionaire with significant influence in Abu Dhabi and is well-known for his eccentric spending habits.

One of the most curious vehicles in his collection is a replica of a 1950’s Dodge Power Wagon pick-up truck – the biggest truck in the world.

But Sheikh has transformed this vehicle and now is six times larger than its counterpart and weighs over fifty tons.

Shockingly, the wheels have been sourced from an oil rig transporter and the wiper has been borrowed from an ocean liner.

The headlamps on this truck cost him a whopping £1,000.

It comes complete with a full-sized kitchen, air-conditioned bedrooms, bathroom and lounge with all mod cons and a patio area in the back.

Surprisingly, this pick-up truck isn’t a static display piece; it actually drives.

It’s powered by a Detroit Diesel straight-6 that produced 300hp, which is enough to move the gigantic vehicle, and is registered to drive in Abu Dhabi.

The Rainbow Sheikh loves this pick-up truck because it was used by oil explorers in the 1950s.

The world’s biggest pickup truck is currently displayed at the Emirates National Museum.
