00:00Everyone likes pickups. This is America. And we make the ultimate pickup.
00:13The compensator. Yes, I've heard of that. I think the bigger the truck, the smaller package.
00:19I don't think we have many of those. Most of our customers have a purpose for this truck.
00:24The sky's the limit at Xtreme Super Truck, where one man and his crew build giant trucks as tall as 10 feet high for rappers, kings and hunters alike.
00:35But the ultimate in customization comes at a price.
00:39These trucks go from $89,000 to approximately a quarter million dollars. And everyone likes big. We got a Big Mac. We got a Whopper. Might have a super truck.
00:48For the past 13 years, Chris Walker has torn apart big 4x4s and SUVs and built them back up again from scratch in his shop in Georgia, USA.
00:58The cool thing I do is I don't take a little truck and try to make it big. I actually take a big truck and I shrink it down.
01:06These are commercial trucks when we buy them and we turn them into, lack of better words, luxury pickups.
01:12This is how everything starts. We got a cab, couple doors, and cloth seats and rubber floors. And from here, we start doing our magic.
01:24Eager to see what magic Chris has performed on his behalf is customer Steven, who can't wait to see his new trunk for the first time.
01:32It's big. It's black. The rest I really don't know yet. I had about 10% input and the rest is up to him. I'm ready to see it.
01:41Oh my God. Look at that. This is nothing what I looked at and it's frigging amazing.
01:48When you lift that lid up there, you've got tons of secret storage. Oh yeah.
01:53Bad boy horn. Full air ride seats, custom center console. You've got an all component stereo system. It's going to sound like you're in a concert hall.
02:03And by the way, I don't know if you've ever got to blow up your beach toys or you've got a flat or quads down on air.
02:10You've always got 10 gallons of air on your truck with an auxiliary air hook up there.
02:15That's nice.
02:16The really cool thing about this right now, there's one in the world. Cheers.
02:22All of Chris's builds are unique, but as well as size, they all have power, speed and smoothness of ride in common.
02:29We're going to look at a red 4x4 4-door pickup that's an extreme and it's 22 and a half feet long.
02:37It's just over 15,000 pounds. It's 100 inches wide again and I'd say it's about 9 foot 6 in height.
02:46So that's going to be a Cummings ISV, 350 horsepower, 950 foot-pounds of torque.
02:53The transmission is going to be a digital 6-speed push-button Allison, which is a 3200 series RDS, which it handles 1,695 foot-pounds of torque.
03:04Right through a Kelderman system, we've got no springs in our trucks. We have full air ride suspensions front and rear.
03:11All these trucks pull 25,000 pounds. They get 13 miles at a gallon and they'll do 100 mile an hour in a heartbeat.
03:21As huge as it is, this isn't even the biggest truck that Chris makes.
03:26The biggest truck is a 6-door 4x4 pickup truck. It's 27 feet long. It's 100 inches wide.
03:339 to 10 feet tall depending on the tire package.
03:36The huge pickup trucks certainly stand out alongside vehicles of more standard proportions.
03:42It's just a dream come true though. If you've got the time and the money, you know, it's something I would like to do.
03:49And Chris is justifiably proud of his bespoke creations.
03:55They can only get this truck from one guy in the world.
03:58And it feels cool to be able to build it for them and knowing that it's such a quality product.
04:03I'll see you later.
04:05You, right?
04:08You, right.
04:11You're welcome.
04:12I'll see you later.
04:13You make a solution.
04:15I'll see you later.
04:17It's a new feature.
04:18You can see you later.
04:20I'll see you later.
04:23See you later.
04:24A new feature.
04:25Jesus, we got your car.
04:27The new feature.
