Sharp as a Marble - As a side note, I don’t really dump gasoline on baby seals and set them on fire either

Can I get one with whale-skin hubcaps and big brown baby seal eyes for headlights?

OUTSANDING! I am so stealing that pic. And yes,it has to become a netwide a meme.
Mine has a fuel additive system for extra performance. One kitten per minute yeilds an extra 60 HP, one spotted owl per minute yeilds 100 HP.
If Ford would actually publish an ad like that, I would buy that truck immediately. Granted, it would cost north of 100k€ over here, and obviously I do not have that kind of money, but I'd gladly take out a huge bank loan just for this. :)

So that is why one always sees those scrotum-looking hitch-hangers on the back ends of pickups...
Friggin' sweet.
Well played, sir.
They need to offer a diesel version that smokes like a chimney out of the box..

I have it on good authority that the diesel version runs on sperm whale oil (instead of bio-diesel).

I just don't get the fascination with vehicles that are slow, won't turn or stop, and can't fit in a parking place. Hey, you know what's really big and gets lousy gas mileage? A school bus.
I don't care about cargo space; the only thing I need my vehicles to haul is ass.

I'm going to resist the urge to say anything on Tam's ass hauling comment, and I recommend anyone who values their own should do likewise. Anyone who can put up a 'Sunday Smith' for over a year and not repeat one, and who has powerful Google-Fu, should not be toyed with.

I really want the seal skin seats option. I hate those whiney little buggers looking up at me. (THUNK!)
And if your truck is big enough, you can make your own parking place.
If you take a tennis ball, and hold it on top of a basketball, then drop them together you get an appreciation of what different masses do to your deceleration rate if you get into an accident. Big is your friend.

You forgot to mention the non-optional gun rack. If we're going to offend lets cover all bases.
Seeing trucks like that on the highways always makes me die a little inside, but for a far different reason than the Greenpeace twits. Something about the concept of deliberately jacking your truck up to the point that your bumper is about neck level on every other driver on the road, and then adding in tires that barely grab onto the pavement never made much sense. After 4 years working accident calls as a firefighter, things like that crossed over to making me want to smack the hell out of guys driving stuff like that around on the roads.
Burn all the gas you want. But if you're going to make it that dedicated to going off-road well, keep it there.

At the Baltimore, MD, aquarium there is a kids' room (Exploratorium or some such nonsense name) where they have the shell of a large sea turtle, whale bones, shark skin, coral pieces, and other such aquatic stuff. My daughter's favorite item (and mine, after she showed it to me) was the baby seal pelt. It is softer than any kitten you can imagine.

Gun rack?
Try ring mount. With angled gunshields and kevlar spall liners.
The question is, do I want lead core frangibles, or DU? Which will annoy the Greens more?

Ah, come on Rick R. you can do better than that :) Need to imagine the entire ammunition package here.
Steel cases that can't be reused... coated nice and thick with cadmium for rust resistance. Same plating might work well on the 'special' projectiles, start with a beryllium bronze jacket with a wee bit of meplat for better hydraulic effect on the softies, center a nice DU spike penetrator in it with a lovely sintered zirconium sponge sheath for some enhanced pyrotechnics on the hard targets, and to hold it all in place plain lead... maybe with some gallium and cadmium alloyed to lower the melting point. Oh, and if it gets too soft, a bit of mercury will raise the hardness.
And don't forget to use a propellant that's heavy on the old processes that used benzene for an extrusion solvent, and a nice hot perchlorate primer.
Because nothing says loving like poking little holes in hard armor followed by superhot flaming jets of burning metal, and turning the area into a superfund while you do it. Just remember the gloves when you clean the weapon later...
