Default The Dhabiyan

The truck, called the Dhabiyan, uses parts from several other production cars in its design.


When he got married, the Sheikh had Mercedes-Benz build him an S-class for each color of the rainbow – upholstery, wheels, and all. That's where he got his nickname: The Rainbow Sheikh. He's also well-known for a 64:1 scale (you read that right) Dodge Power Wagon that has living quarters inside, including a luxurious master bedroom in the cab and a tailgate that converts into a spacious back porch.

His latest creation, which he calls the Dhabiyan, is the subject of its very own hype video on YouTube. It's a ten-wheeled behemoth, based on an Oshkosh M1075 military transport, with parts of several other production cars plainly visible in its construction. In the video, we can make out a cab made from a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited body, turn signals made from a Ford Super Duty, and taillights and a rear bumper from, bizarrely, a Dodge Dart.
