The Mad Max Wiki


There's a violence to that machine which is brutal. It's a big, loud, angry monster truck.

– Chris Hemsworth ("Dementus" Actor, Regarding The Six Foot)

Technical Specs[]

The Six Foot

The Six Foot is a modified Mack DM Series monster truck. It uses a big block Chevrolet 454 engine. It has 1006 horsepower at 6500 RPM and 1000 lb-ft torque at 5000 RPM.


Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga[]

Following a failed attempt to stop Dementus and his Biker Horde from taking the Bullet Farm, Furiosa and Praetorian Jack are forced to flee in the Valiant. They, however, are quickly pursued by the group, including Dementus in his menacing Six Foot. In the ensuing conflict, Furiosa's left arm is crushed in-between the Valiant and the Six Foot. He then rams into the Valiant, wrecking it and captures both Furiosa and Jack. He then forces Furiosa to watch as Jack is chained to a motorcycle and tortured to death, though Furiosa breaks off what is left of her arm and manages to escape.

Behind the Scenes[]

In an interview with Fandango, Dementus actor Chris Hemsworth described this as his favorite vehicle in Furiosa. He remembers doing a take in which he had forgotten to put in earplugs prior to starting the vehicle and had his ears ringing for the next two days.[1]

All of the vehicles in the Mad Max Saga are real. From Motor Trend:

"This new installment in the series features a whole new cast of metal monsters, all of which are functioning real vehicles with largely practical effects. Everything from chariots made from motorcycles to tankers armed with flame throwers and harpoon guns—all of it's real."[2]
