Shaq added yet another vehicle to his collection, but this time there was a minor problem with the Shelby ‘truck’.
The truck in question was a Shelby F-150 Super Snake, possibly the closest thing to a ‘muscle truck’ you can find.
It looked tremendous, but apparently there’s one thing about the vehicle the tuning firm that modified it may have missed.
But even though Shaq had one specific complaint about it, we’re sure there was at least one redeeming feature.

The one thing we’re sure Shaq liked about his truck
Shaquille O’Neal owns around 40 cars, and most of these vehicles had to be modified for him because otherwise he wouldn’t fit.
With a few exceptions (for example, the Cybertruck he briefly owned), the vast majority of cars he owns are modified and stretched to accommodate his incredibly long legs.
He also famously made a Ferrari 360 a few inches longer so he could drive it, which we’re sure Ferrari wasn’t happy about.
The one thing we’re sure Shaq was happy about – this F-150’s redeeming feature, if you like – was probably the fact it didn’t need a lot of work on that front.
The Ford F-150 isn’t the biggest truck in the world, but it’s far from the smallest.
So hopefully Shaq could fit even without dramatically altering the structure of the vehicle
Apparently the tuning company got one thing ‘wrong’
The truck’s size was a plus for Shaq, as were Effortless Motors‘ – probably his favorite tuner – mods.
But as he got off his private jet, the retired NBA star joked about the F-150 having ‘something wrong with it.’
Apparently, it was the wrong color.
“I said off-white [not red], bro,” the NBA legend joked.
Knowing Shaq, one of two things will happen.
Plan A is he’ll have the truck repainted.
Plan B? He’ll simply buy another one in white.
This is the man who dropped $1.3m on three Rolls-Royces just to spite a salesman, so he could definitely afford it.
