Old Lincoln Limo Town Cars are well past their retirement stage, but they still have a few fans and one American enthusiast decided to go all-in, creating a Lincoln monster truck limo to travel around in.
Why, you may ask?
This man straight up responded with, ‘Why not?’
It’s called the ‘USS Compensator’ — and the name somehow fits right in.

Oregon man builds a Lincoln monster truck limo
Although we don’t exactly know what this monstrosity of a limo compensates for, it’s likely the Oregon town’s ‘normal’ roads.
In a video uploaded on YouTube by Ridiculous Rides, Jordon Foster revealed that he created this vehicle as a hobby.
As a matter of fact, the entire thing only cost him less than $10,000 to build — and that’s including the original Lincoln Town Car.
The depreciated value of an old limo like this is mostly because nobody really wants them anymore.
Moreover, the only instances where you hear about a Lincoln might be in a barn find.
Or someone using one to run a gelato bar, perhaps?
Foster also mentioned that the project only took him around three months to complete.
That’s certainly a sizeable garage project to take on alone.
All he used was a handful of tools like welders and plasma cutters — basically, anything off-the-shelf he could get his hands on without looking much.
The USS Compensator isn’t practical, and it doesn’t need to be
It’s certainly not the first time we’ve seen someone follow their passion to build what they love.
For instance, this Florida man converted an old fire truck to create a jet-powered fire-truck-monster-truck mutant.
Monster trucks may seem like an old trend, but the idea apparently still keeps inspiring some.
This is exactly why this Lincoln monster limo is chaotic, and we’re here for it.
Foster uses it to drive around his town and get into drive-thrus.
It’s not easy to maneuver, park, or turn, but – you have to understand – that’s not really the point, is it?
The USS Compensator is all about fun because you don’t see an old Lincoln with 53-inch tires every day.
