Shaq just got his custom widebody Cybertruck and it’s a real head-turner.

He calls it the Cyberdiesel, and it’s fully blacked out, with everything black, including the 26-inch wheels courtesy of Forgiato.

More importantly for Shaq, he says this is perfect for him for a very simple reason – he fits in it.

Shaquille O’Neal is 7 foot 1 and weighs 325 pounds, so finding cars he can use has always been an issue.

Shaq and his Cybertruck collection

Shaquille O’Neal doesn’t own a Cybertruck, he owns a collection.

He bought the first one a while back, and immediately decided he wanted another one, so he bought his second Cybertruck.

The second truck, the one you see here, is finished in carbon black, with matching 26-inch wheels.

At the back, the truck is also customized with black-on-black lettering with the name of Shaq’s Cybertruck, ‘Cyberdiesel’.

The truck is also adorned with carbon fiber accents throughout and a red underglow light kit, which makes it look like it came out the first Fast and Furious film 20+ years ago.

Shaq’s ‘problem’

Shaquille O’Neal is worth $500 million.

In addition to the money he earned playing in the NBA for 19 seasons, Shaq owns a long list of businesses, including Five Guys and Auntie Anny’s fast-food restaurants, car washes, fitness centers, and more.

So, money is no object but, unfortunately for him, size is.

Shaq can afford any car he wants, but he doesn’t fit in most of them.

He came up with an ‘extreme’ idea to get around that problem.

When he wanted a Lamborghini Gallardo, he bought two of them, literally cut them in half and then ‘glued’ them back together to make it longer.

He did the same with his Ferrari.

Fortunately he didn’t have to do that with his Cybertruck.
