I just googled "Ford 750". No way this shit exists for real, seems like a Hot Wheels

It's a commercial vehicle. Very few, if any, people drive them as normal commuter vehicles.

Okay because despite being a commercial vehicle I would have believed someone telling me that it's mostly used to commute in a residential area lol. Often people drive pickups because they feel they need a truck even tho they never use the bed

Nooooo. They’re on the internet so they’re real.

Serious answer here. So the black truck comes as a truck builder option. You buy the cab, engine and suspension (frame obviously too) and customize from there. The truck is designed to provide PTO and electrical interface for development. They’re a pain to work on. The one of a kind I worked on were. https://www.ford.com/commercial-trucks/f650-f750/models/f750-sd-diesel-straight-frame/
