With V8 Engine, Kevlar Armoring and Starlit Red Interior, Custom Pickup Truck for Shaquille O’Neal Is Valued at R$ 19.6 Million
The former basketball player Shaquille O’Neal now has a car that matches his height of 2.16 m. The NBA legend ordered a pickup truck fully customized to his size, with a rugged look and luxurious finish.
The project was carried out by the company West Coast Customs, known for vehicle customizations. The order was placed last year. Now, the model is ready and has been named Apocalypse6x6.
Even with a name suggesting six wheels, the pickup truck has four wheels and 4×4 traction. The base of the project is a Ram 1500 TRX, which underwent a series of changes.
