Chapter 1030 1015. Steel Beast (15)

Before entering the Ford store, Wang Bo made a phone call, and a white man in a neat suit came out to greet him and asked, "Mr. Wang?"

Wang Bo shook hands with him and said, "Hello, I'm Wang, from Sunset Town, I think Kaplan has already greeted you, right?"

The white man nodded politely: "Yes, our mutual buddy told me that you have a relatively large demand for pickup trucks, let me treat you well."

This Ford store is very large, covering an area of ​​tens of thousands of square meters. It is divided into several areas, new car area, used car area, maintenance area, and a display area.

The man Kaplan introduced was George Haveton, the general manager of the Ford store in Christchurch and a regional director. He personally accompanied Wang Bo to visit the store.

The first thing they entered was the exhibition area. A steel beast was placed in the center, and there were many Ford cars around it, like the king of beasts guarding them.

This beast of steel is a pickup truck. In fact, it has gone beyond the concept of a pickup truck. This guy is more than ten meters long and 3.5 meters tall. Wang Bo even needs to look up to it.

"God, this is really a monster." Wang Bo exclaimed.

Motak ran over and asked his companion to take a photo with him, and said, "Has Ford's concept car been tied up? Boss, buy this car, and it can handle all the work on the farm with ease."

Wang Bo is really interested in this car, this is not a pickup truck, this is an armored vehicle!

The Predator he usually drives is already big, but compared with this car, the Predator can only be said to be a little brother, much smaller than it.

George Haverton smiled and said: "Unfortunately, gentlemen, as this Maori friend said, this is our concept car and it cannot be sold yet."

Wang Bo caressed the car body and said, "Since the model has been made, it's not far from mass production, right?"

George shook his head and said: "This is indeed a model car, but it's not the model you understand. It's just an empty shelf now, with the engine, gearbox and operating system inside."

Wang Bola opened the door and went up to have a look. To get on this car, he had to use a small ladder, and there was a kind of ladder under the pedals.

George showed the ladder, then Jean put it away and said with a smile: "It doesn't have to be so complicated to go up, just look at the button here, just press it."

The pedals slowly descended, like an elevator, Wang Bo stood up and pulled the button up, and the pedals rose again, sending him to the pickup truck.

Seeing this scene, he couldn't bear the surprise in his heart.

Ford deserves to be the first-class car manufacturer of the century. This concept car is simply too dreamy. You don’t even need to move when you get in and out of the car. This is not a farm vehicle, this is a big luxury toy.

Originally, the price of this car was not prepared for farmers. George said that it will be launched in the future. The price of this car will be at least 500,000 New Zealand dollars. In New Zealand, this is an absolutely high-end car.

Sitting in the driver's seat feels even better.

The vision of this car is incomparable to the Predator. The cab is very spacious. The driver's seat is not a seat, but a throne. People seem to be wrapped in it after sitting in it.

The driver's seat can also be laid flat, and it becomes a small bed when it is put down, and the rear seat is not a seat, but a sofa, or a spacious business sofa. In this car, even Atulu can play car vibration.

There are still many parts that can be seen. If Lao Wang doesn't look at it, he will definitely be greedy and want to buy this car, but even if he has money, he can't buy this car.

"Take me to see the F-series cars." Wang Bo reluctantly took a look at the luxury pickup after he got down.

George took him out: "If you like aggressive big guys, you don't have to worry about concept cars. Our F650 and F750 are also aggressive enough!"

Wang Bo's ranch has the F150, which is an entry-level car in the Ford F-series pickup. It has enough functions for the ranch, but it is a bit stretched for the farm.

This time I chose to come to the Ford store, in addition to Kaplan’s introduction, but also because he has a good impression of Ford pickups.

Except for the high fuel consumption, there is no other problem with this car. I have been doing rough work on the ranch all day, and the car has been running for nearly four years without any problems.

They first looked at the Ford Raptor F650, which is a medium-sized commercial pickup truck owned by Ford. It has a wide range of choices, from the shape of the front to the size of the cargo compartment, and the load capacity can be selected according to the different needs of users. .

"In the United States, although this car is expensive, it is the favorite model of farmers. It is nicknamed Burger King - you can choose how much meat to add to the burger according to your appetite." George introduced.

Wang Bo nodded and said, "Burger King? That's good. I like it better than McDonald's."

Speaking of which, the F650 is also a beast of steel, with a length of six and a half meters, a height of two meters eight, and a width of two meters seven.

The front of the car has a huge bumper, the front face is an air intake grille, plus the headlights installed on the wheel arches, the car is full of strong impact when viewed from the front, and looks like a beast.

Unfortunately, they had just seen a Steel Fortress, so the F650 wasn't quite as impressive.

Knowing this, George started to attract him from the car's dynamics.

"This big guy uses a 6.7LV8 diesel engine originally produced by Cummins in the United States, with a maximum power of 239KW and a maximum torque of 800 N.m. Even in the mountains, it can run like flying."

Power was introduced, and George detailed the car's operating system.

ABS+EBD emergency brake assist system, traction control system main and auxiliary airbags, hydraulic power steering, rear airbag lift, remote control key, multi-function information display instrument panel dual temperature zone automatic air conditioning system, etc.

Wang Bo was a little surprised, that is, the pedals of this car are the same as the previous concept car, and can also be controlled electrically, which means that a child can easily get on the car.

"How about the load capacity?" Wang Bo attached great importance to this point, because this cart has to carry grain.

George smiled proudly: "You asked about its proudest part, sir, it can carry up to 12 tons of cargo without modification. I think you understand that it has surpassed the common pickup trucks in general. Yeah?"

"What about after the modification?"

"After modification, it is a real savage, which can carry 17 tons of weight, which is equivalent to a standard American Class 8 heavy truck!"

Indeed, from this point of view, the F650 can be called a steel beast. In terms of load capacity, it has exceeded Wang Bo's requirements.
