American here, I don't think I've ever seen someone who uses something like this as their daily driver (I do not live in Texas. No one knows what goes down in Texas). I believe this vehicle is mainly for companies, and I believe (I could be wrong) that consumers can only go up to the F-250 or the F-350. Every time I've seen an F-650, it's been a company vehicle. They're also not very common here as well (at least where I am), and I believe I've only seen like 2 F-650s in my entire life. While that may be two too many for this community, I'm honestly surprised I haven't seen more. Apparently Ford has an F-750 as well, but I've only see one of them before, and it was very surprising. I hope this helps you understand! (At least from my point of view.)
My father drives a vehicle like this as his daily driver and works as a high level tech employee in DC. He drives it hundreds of miles and brags it has better gas mileage than his previous shitty oversized SUV.... Sooo.... Take that anecdote as you will
