From Dwayne Johnson's (AKA The Rock) custom-designed Ford F-150, Lady Gaga's first-generation Ford SVT Lightning, Shaquille (Shaq) O'Neal's humongous and extreme Ford F-650, and Channing Tatum's old-school favorite Chevrolet 3100 pick-up truck, Hollywood celebrities ardent fascination for something huge and colossal like the pick-up truck had sparked a certain sense of curiosity largely inescapable to the public eye.
