Pictured is the Canadian FIDO Futurliner making its way to its new home in Chandler, AZ. The colossal Futurliner lumbers out of Scottsdale's WestWorld and heads down Loop 101. Ron Pratte bought the Futurliner for $4 million at the Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction in January of 2006.
The Futurliner was too large to bring on the stage at the Barrett-Jackson auction so it remained parked in the corner of the bidding floor during its auction. Mike Rynearson / The Arizona Republic
The FIDO Futurliner was billed as "a matchless symbol of the American auto industry at the height of its power and influence."  20,000 attendees stood and cheered as the  frenzied bidding rewrote the Barrett-Jackson record for a vehicle sold by more than $1 million dollars.
