Stars and Cars: US pro athletes vs Planet Earth


Big ego + big truck = $$$s to fill her up

Say hi to American football star Chris McAlister and his monster ride.

McAlister plays at cornerback for the Baltimore Ravens, and therefore earns several million dollars a year, just for getting in the face of opposing wide receivers. What does he do with those $s? He mostly pays for petrol to keep his giant Ford F650 Super Truck on the road. How much does it cost to fill up the four tanks (that’s right, four tanks, each of which holds 50 gallons) in this tarmac-crushing behemoth? We’ll tell you: it costs $750. Mind how you go with that carbon footprint, Chris.
