I give these guys kudos for not putting those stupid 46" rims on their trucks!
Right! Actual capability in those now
I know i hate the huge rims on trucks, in my city i see so many Dodge trucks with giant rims and ultra low profile tires, just garbage
I'm a firm believer in those trucks being repo'd immediately and the owners fined with maybe a 3 day license suspension
But dude...lol
I was always told your tire should be twice the size of the rim. Anything else is unacceptable and impractical
This guy explained every piece of info on these trucks. Every custom inch of those trucks we're built for a purpose not just for show.
Well that means if you don't have that particular purpose, don't buy one.
Which very few guys do.
Never get tired of Jeremy. He always has an answer to any question you could ask
I have zero need for something this big.... but I WANT ONE!
I'd have to buy a huge travel trailer or 5th wheel RV to justify owning a truck this big.
@@L0VE2SERV3 what are you waiting for? Get on it, man! 😆
As insane as new truck prices are, the prices for these trucks seems almost reasonable.
You have to be kidding
For a custom made bed, suspension, wheels and tires and to make it all work. I didn’t think they were overpriced.
@@imsurly7742 Given the base truck is well over 100k it is not too bad with all the custom add ons in this.
As I love this trucks ❤ the extra 4” inch added to cheat the bed. I think it would be beneficial to make it a diesel cell tank to add more gallons. Like it you agree comrades
Certainly
Wow that is sweet. So much innovation that is 100% functional. Well done.
This is super exciting to see. I have a ‘22 Ram 5500 crew cab, 60CA with 50 miles on it sitting in my driveway right now, waiting for Bowen to tell me my camper flat bed ( just like this one) is in production! Given that I’m not towing, I ordered a 6.4 hemi 4x4, SLT (to maintain mechanical 4x4 engagement). Thanks TFL for giving me my preview!
I've got my 84CA 5500 ready for Bowen to do my Host Mammoth bed in April! Can't wait! Debating whether to leave it DRW or convert, concerned about stability with that camper.
Come on Powerball! Papa needs one of these. 😂
Great video, these guys are building very functional trucks that are so much smarter than the typical stupid lifted bro truck.
Man beautiful trucks. so functional. not bad for pricing considering the stock truck pricing is already crazy. Added to wish list for lottery win.
I would love the Ram 5500. Love that it can lower it for towing
It speed limited to 15mph
Perhaps Andre should offer up 1 of these builds to his buddy Warren in Seattle that is having issues with his F250 Tranny. 😅(which was modified as well)
So that big white Ford basically has live shocks, like a Raptor? I love it!
These were great rigs! I'm a small girl so mid-size is all I need, but I still appreciate the big boys lol
All 3 trucks are awesome, Since I am a RAM guy now, I prefer the Ram. They should use those big fenders for Ram boxes. And why not make a tailgate that can fold down. That would help have easy access to stuff inside the bed. Or why not make a truck like the 3rd truck with many opening compartments? That would be awesome.!
I normally detest lifted 3/4 and 1 ton trucks but at least alot of thought went into this truck to basically turn it into the ultimate actually usable heavy duty high payload off road truck.
These are some bad ass trucks no doubt
Shocks so big looks like you got a fire extinguisher on every corner 😂 these are sweet 🤙🏽 for my dreams of course
Those trucks are BA love it!
I never thought Id see a truck look proportional with 42s
Just what they've done to allow that bed to be put on a chassis cab Ford is worth it for me. I'd rather have my 450 or 550 like they come from Ford but put that bed on it.
They had one of these at the Tampa RV Show a couple of weeks ago. Beast of a truck.
Beautiful trucks
So can you put a Lance 1192 in the Bowen Bed completely loaded with gear and fluids? But the only thing that you would have to worry about is the height of the camper for Overpasses? Great Video Andrey Thank You 🙏
Needs a bumper sticker that says, "I have chunks of EV's in my exhaust"...
I definitely see the appeal, but if the trucks come from the factory for $80k, can you really justify spending another $100k on top of that for their product? To me it just seems like fancy suspension, a custom bed, and big tires.
Nah the way they have that truck configured, with all the body mods, high end suspension, commercial tires and wheels, and weeks upon weeks of fab plus paint i'd imagine the cost of components including the chassis is well over 100k. Add on the labor and markup and your probably looking pretty reasonable. A modern 5 ton chassis with a reefer box which is far less exciting can easily approach 150+k$
The Ford is an F550 and the Ram is a 5500. You can't even buy these trucks from either company with a bed. They are basically custom building a pickup truck on steroids. There is a ton of work that goes into one of these trucks. You couldn't do this yourself for less money. The closest thing you could buy from a dealer that would come close to these is going to be a lifted F450 or lifted 3500. They will want over 150K and you will have a much lower payload rating. Just search for Ram broken in half.
Wow very cool. Wish I could afford one...
Nice Tractor 👍
thanks you
YES, Very nice.
Wow...very nice!
the F five fiddy reminds me of that little guys truck on that towing show
I will get one of these one day
They finally nocked it out of the park, this is a maybe I might get this one.
Jeremy is the king of mullets.
Those trucks are absolute brutes!
JUST A DREAM!
the ram is epic
Real steel. Purpose built. I have no need for one but I understand others may. Lots of rig for the $.
Be cool if you could run aggressive chains on those tires when needed.
Wow, booyah 👊🏽😁👍🏽🇺🇸
My dreams, dream of trying to afford 😪 any of those trucks. But awesome trucks either way.
Need this ford build in a Raptor shell🔥
I need something like this for my 99 f350 flat bed
Nice looking but I'd rather have the dual rear wheels than the singles. More stability when towing.
Want a smooth ride buy a car not a truck. The weird gap of a stock bed on the 5500 could be filled with an auxiliary fuel tank.
I want the last one.
There's always someone complaining about the price in the comments whenever there's a special truck. Look. Everything is expensive these days, even eggs. But also steel, aluminum, tires and computers. And the bigger the truck, the more of these things you have to pay for. So yes, an F-350 or bigger is gonna cost you a yearly salary or two.
I wish I was making 200k a year. I'd spend it on real estate, not a monster truck
@@mendonesiacBut I bet people who are able to own one of these already have those things that you listed and then some.
I was expecting him to say a higher price for these builds, plenty of Aussie 79 series have $250k builds with trays and all along with dudes who have well over $100k in to Tacoma and 4runner builds. All things considered it's fairly reasonable in the world of high end rigs.
I want them bumpers on my f 350 dually. 😂
I like the ram the best the back tampers off better to me.
I really wish that these guys had a website. That said I would love to have a F550 that could conceivably have a 8ft bed and have dual stacks without cutting holes in the bed.
I was with ya until you said dual stacks,,,,😂😂. To each their own on customizations, so I don’t mean they are bad. I have a preference for cleaner lines with the exhaust tucked away underneath.
That utility bed is what I like! My preference for camping is with a truck & camper. We go into areas where a stock truck with a 3000 lb camper can’t go, mostly because the camper may not survive the flexing. The added pivot points on the utility bed will keep the camper from flexing so much and it won’t tear itself apart. Nice. I get a bit of razzing about hauling the camper and using a utility bed. The extra storage alone is worth the razzing!! 😂😂.
I hope one of these is in your future!!! Eh!
@@shitloveaduck Even among stack guys I am a bit odd. I don't want to cut holes in my bed to run a stack let alone some massive 8 inch monster since I actually use the bed of my trucks but some nice 4 inch stacks that are flush with the sides of the truck give it a big rig look without going overboard.
Tucked away exhaust is just too close to stock and seems just a bit boring in my opinion. As you said though to each their own setup.
I'm confused? They do have a website
@@danielfrain3521 Do you have a link? All I have found are useless facebook and Instagram pages along side news articles that mention their products.
@@Hybris51129 - that’s all there is. No website.
Im more interested in the bronco in the background
i think i remember these guys last year. sick truck!
So 10-11 inch's of tire height difference and no gearing change? The obscenely low gear ration is sort of why these trucks are rated for the weight they are. And now the rear brakes have no protection... Going to be a very costly tire change when those things pop, besides needing a new wheel the whole bed side is going to be trashed. As I have seen large tires like that tear the hell out of much thicker metal on trailers.
The suspension sounds interesting, and would have liked more info on it.
With the extra bed size can extra fuel tanks and water be hidden in that gap? The 2in. lift also makes it internationally certifiable.
Very Nice Trucks! But those prices are a Joke.
Can you guys find out whey the high output 6.7l is not available on the F550? or when it will be?
Heck yeah. Go bigger or don't go. You could tow pretty much alot to pit money in your pocket as a living.
If price wasn't an issue...... What truck of the big 3 would you pick to use for daily driver & towing a piece of equipment that weights roughly 22-23,000lbs?
This Ram towed that Ford. I like that. 👍
Can this be done with a mega cab?
What about the 2023 f450?
I live in europe and this wouldn't even fit on the road, why am i watching this at 3 am?🤨😅
Cool 👍👍👍👍😎😎
Loved the cid wat was the price on the ram
Ok this guy must have lived under a rock to claim that His super single is the first truck in the “world” that can have this type of flatbed and a truck camper on it. Sherptek has been doing these custom bed for years and dbl design in TX has been doing super single as you know. This guy is just another Johnny come lately… Bowen does nice work but he has been missing for the last 4 years. Better late than not be around. Lead time for one of his beds sherptek or Bowen is 1 year plus. He should looking into Ford’s cracked frame recall too. Hopefully they have now corrected that at the factory. I’m glad to see this category grow, there were two companies doing these builds three years ago. Liquid springs is about 25k add-on. I know about this because I have a build like this. His pricing is way over the top… 200k my suggestion if you’re interested is be your own constructor… shop the truck super single with him , buckstop truckware and dbl design… they are all installing liquid springs too. Highway products, Bowen and Sherptek build custom flatbed and you can pick the best truck camper if your choice. You f you do these you will save 10’s of thousands of dollars
He’s referencing our beds in that “First in the World” statement. And while those other companies do make very nice beds, we believe this is the first bed to allow a slide in camper AND enclosed storage for a 42” tire. Also, this bed and the EOG bed are the only beds in the world to allow for full articulation of a 42” tire with liquid spring on an F550.
Last clarification: Bowen Customs is 6-9 months out not 1 year plus. If you were to order this truck through Elevation Off Grid, you would actually have this bed in 4 months.
Thank you for the compliments on our beds!
@@bowen_customs That's great I wish you had decided to get into this stuff three years ago. You do great work. But sorry you weren't the first.
barretjackson seems to have nice vehicles.
The 8ft camper bed with onboard internal tyre storage is more than 10 years old. Perhaps he ment in the US or for that model?
THE FORD 550 AND THE RAM 3500 IS REALY NICE , PERFECT TIRES AND RIMS FOR THAT TRUCK , IT MAKES IT DURABLE , STABLE WHEN DRIVING , LIKE THE HIGHT !!!
Put their info in the description
Surprised there was no real discussion about converting to single rear wheel. Those 5500 trucks come as dually. How do they do that and maintain factory warranty? What does it do to performance? Etc
Does liquid spring do suspension for 3/4 ton and 1 ton trucks as well?
Liquid spring has a web site that shows their products.
Oh my goodness Andre I called you out in this last time. Can you not get a good 30 second video of the thing going all the way up as high as a can and all the way down as low as it can. Goodness
This is our black edition that's painted white
Lol for real
Seriously!!! I yelled at my phone when he said that
" TFL.. I tow my fishing gear and cooler about twice a year, what truck would you recommend?"
so liquid spring suspension is just hydropneumatic suspension bout damn time its been on tractors and other heavy equipment for decades.
Only thing is they put bigger tires and didn't regear. They will go through some transmitions especially towing and the heavier the trailer the faster it will happen. The rule of thumb was 10% of gear per one inch the tire. Who ever buys one these trucks needs to immediately go get it regeared
Is the bed 8 foot on the 5500 ?
Race the Ford raptor r vs trx
One of the problems truck makers are running into is what the Department of Transportation considers Commercial Operations. Small farms, cattle ranchers, and horse farms have been battling this for years. They buy an F-350 or Ram 1 ton with a crew cab and the towing ability that places the rig with a trailer into the commercial weight class. That would require a commercial driver's license which the vehicle can't fit anyway, but they try enforcing it here and there. To be a commercial truck and not a day cab then there are cab fitment requirements for that. Then there is the commercial license itself. That is another expense in time and money that isn't used but maybe a few times a year during a show or sale season. Some long-haul livestock operators haul horses and livestock to sales of shows, but few horse trainers or livestock growers will send their customers $259.000 stallion off in a semi unless they own it and crew to operate it. That would shut down all the smaller producers and we already see that today through regulation. Did I read where Dodge derated some truck towing capacity recently?
Can I buy the parts alone what kinda warranty do I get ? Does the factory warranty still apply. after taxes, it is well over 200k, not seeing the value
The value is there for those who want or need this type of deal.
So for how heavy it is. I wanna see it go through mud.
I had a guy visit our church with a 5500 Chevy he said it was a Silverado with a duel on a Kodiak chassis. Where do they sell these? 1500 ftlbs of torque ?
Usually dealerships that have fleet sales can get you one, or any Chevy/GMC dealer should be able to get you one.
Will that bed adapt to a 06 ram cummins long bed
Third Gen Ram CTD for the win!
Kelderman Trucks
So they don’t do chevys?
Love the F550. The one thing I would want to change is the rear fender width. I don't like how the wheel is set inside the fenders. IMO, taking off just an inch or two so the the rear tire has at least an inch of poke on both sides would make it look a lot better.
It’s for suspension travel not good looks. Besides looks fine to me. Hate when tires are flush with fenders cause you know if it compresses too much it’s just sending the tire into the fender. It’s looks clean af as it is.
I agree with you. It would make it look better, but if those big aggressive tires stuck out any at all, it would destroy the side of the truck with rock chips, plus not to mention anyone following it on the road. It would throw rocks, sand, and anything they ran over could potentially be a dangerous projectile.
What about a 5th wheel??
$$$. But if you want to give one away, I'll take that ram.
Just by an M1 Abrams or a Tiger.
sure legendary 6.7 Cummins except for the faulty emission systems, failing d e f failing turbo actuator failing EGR system that clogs up with soot and it also clogs up the intake, and also the coolant reservoir that splits on the seam all reasons why I no longer own a diesel
Beautiful but I bet they are like 125-225k. had to edit he said $184,900 for one of those.
None of these trucks would go where I go hunting, fishing, and off roading in Colorado, to big, to stupid, to heavy...
All non-starters for serious off road/grid use.
So the point of these is what exactly? For Hotshots pulling big heavy trailers? No 5th wheel. Hauling boulders or stone? No dump box. Or actually just to drive around and feel important.
Why? Because I can!...LOL
Like Phil Hartman said while playing Sinatra on SNL..." I have chunks of Prius' in my exhaust" ...
Love to drive it but don’t want to own it 😂
What for?
I mean if somebody makes enough money to buy one of these things good for them. But seriously, this is the level of excess where we are now?
Didn't TFl buy a Unimog for 400k?? This seems like a way better investment
The tiny penor section of the car show.
What is the target market for this? The tiny home dweller that wants a larger carbon footprint. Also when you say straight frame, commercial truck frames are what I pictured. What I saw looked to be regular truck frame with normal bends for axle clearance. No fleet managers are going to want to deal with all those non off the shelf parts either. Same with farmers/ranchers. Seems to me this is another look at me I'm "sPeCiAL" truck.
It’s mainly meant for the large Cabover camper market I would imagine. The cabovers have gotten to heavy for the 3500’s
Awesome build but who can afford these?
