The Super-Liner took a year to build at the manufacturer’s Wacol headquarters, south-west of Brisbane.

According to ABC News, the rig has some of the fanciest extras around, including a six-camera closed-circuit television system, two flat screen television sets, a stone-topped kitchen area, barbecue, double bed and seats with 72,000 stitches of gold thread. It also boasts a solid-gold tiger hood ornament.
“This is my dream — am I smiling?” the Sultan said of his “palace truck.”
The price tag is a well-kept secret, but smashes the previous record of A$481,000 for a customised rig. The Sultan said he was delighted with the end result.

“I have always appreciated Australia’s engineering skills and have collected a few Holden cars over the years.
“I am looking forward to showing its workmanship to the people of Johor as soon as the Super-Liner is shipped over,” he said.
The Sultan ordered the heavy duty rig to tow his power boat around the country. But his first drive will be a charity run when it arrives in Malaysia at the end of this month. – Bernama
