I think GMC Sierra sales are tracked separately from the Silverado. If they were combined it would outpace the F150. As it is, the F150 is the largest sales volume vehicle in the world.

1 - This area looks unfinished.

2 - This could actually be a good idea, in terms of brake cooling.

Weight the duct so that it stays facing forward and couple that with cooling slots in the road wheel. Added airflow certainly couldn't hurt in high demand situations.

Even combined they are short of F150 sales, but ahead of Ram. 807,894.

I agree, GMC and Chevy trucks could be counted together, as they are virtually the same vehicle.

Guinness World Record 24K Pizza, Industry Kitchen; New York: $2,000

For those who think New York is just 99-cent slice shops, a trip to Industry Kitchen will certainly change their mindset. A 48-hour heads-up will get the kitchen started on preparing a pizza topped with stilton cheese, foie gras, Ossetra caviar, shaved truffles, and 24-karat gold. If that doesn’t feel decadent enough, you can throw on half an ounce of Almas caviar for an additional $700.

Fleur Burger 5000, Fleur; Las Vegas, $5,000

Why spend 99 cents on a burger from McDonald's when you can spend $5,000 on a burger at Fleur in Vegas? This particular burger may not come with a happy meal but it does come with wagyu beef, seared foie gras, a mound of shaved truffles, and a bottle of 1995 Chateau Petrus (a super high-end Bordeaux) to wash it all down. Cheers to hitting the jackpot.

The Gold Experience, 212 Steakhouse; New York: $400

Kobe beef is the Rolls-Royce of steaks, and when you wrap Kobe steak in 24-karat gold leaf you’re basically enjoying the epitome of luxurious foods. You can try the steak of King Midas’s dreams at 212 Steakhouse in Manhattan which sells a 6-ounce gilded steak for a casual $400.

Billion Dollar Popcorn, Berco’s Popcorn; Chicago: $2,500

It’s hard to imagine dropping $2,500 on a tin of popcorn when you can buy a $8 refillable tub at the movie theater but this isn’t the stuff you’ll find at your local AMC. Made with organic sugar, Vermont Creamery butter, Nielsen Massey Bourbon Vanilla, the most expensive salt in the world from The Danish island of Laeso, and 23-karat gold flakes, this popcorn isn’t something you’ll grab by the handful. If you want to taste Berco’s luxurious treat but can’t commit to spending two month’s rent, a reasonable $5 will get you a sample.

ZD Abacus Dinner, Bourbon & Bones Chophouse; Scottsdale: $20,000

OK, so this isn’t technically a dish, it’s a full-fledged feast. Throwing down $20,000 at Bourbon & Bones in Scottsdale, Arizona gets you a six-course dinner for 12, which includes a hand-selected customized menu complete with 12 32-ounce dry-aged wagyu tomahawk ribeye steaks, a three-liter bottle of limited edition ZD Abacus wine, and transportation to and from the restaurant in a limo. It’s kind of like going to the prom, if you paid $20,000 for your prom.

Japanese Wagyu A5+ Steak, Old Homestead Steakhouse; New York: $350

You’ve never had a steak until you’ve had an A5 wagyu steak. These cuts are the highest quality pieces of beef out there which is why the 150-year-old establishment charges $350 for 12 ounces of this premium cut. If that feels like too much of a financial commitment, there’s a more reasonably (ish) priced six-ounce option for $175. What a bargain.

High Roller Roll, Sushi Roku; Las Vegas: $250

Nothing says “I won big” quite like dropping $250 on a roll of sushi. This off-menu roll at Sushi Roku includes lobster tail, tuna, wagyu beef, avocado, asparagus, golden Ossetra caviar, truffle oil, and gold leaf. Because that’s how high rollers roll, right?

Tasting Menu, Masa; New York: $595

Chef Masayoshi Takayama’s Shibiu Experience at Masa is the most expensive pre fixe meal in the United States. For $595 per person diners are treated to plate after plate of chef's choice consisting of fish flown in from Japan, caviar, wagyu beef, and truffles, to name a few. If you'd like to drink with your meal, expect to easily spend upwards of $1,500 per person (with tax and gratuity).

Foot Long Haute Dog, Serendipity; New York: $69

Ditch the street hot dogs sitting in suspicious-looking water and try one that’s worth $69 instead. The all-beef hot dog at Serendipity is served on a pretzel bun, topped with foie gras, Vidalia onions, and black truffles. And because they didn’t want the luxury to end, the hot dog is grilled in truffle oil.

Sample an assortment of the most superior pieces of beef with the A5 experience at A5A Steakhouse. The meat-heavy adventure includes four ounces of A5 New York strip, filet, ribeye, and ribcap. The entire production will only set you back a cool $665, so you can pay rent or enjoy the A5 experience.

Quintessential Grilled Cheese Sandwich, Serendipity; New York: $214

The Serendipity grilled cheese sandwich is the embodiment of the word “extra." For starters, the bread is made with 24-karat gold flakes and Dom Perignon, and spread with white truffle butter, and topped with Caciocavallo Podolico cheese. The cheese is the big ticket item here—there are only 25,000 Italian Podolica cows that can be used to make this cheese and they only lactate from May to June.

It’s hard to make a casual bar food like chicken wings feel elegant but The Ainsworth has proven that it is indeed possible. The popular sports bar offers 50 decadent nuggs brined for 24 hours, dusted in gold, and served with a gold bottle of Ace of Spades Champagne. Level up, McNuggets.

The Cordyceps Soup, The Cosmopolitan; Las Vegas: $688

This soup made from cordyceps that are also referred to as caterpillar fungus—due to its fuzzy resemblance—and the stuff actually has properties that naturally cure cancer. The rare fungus is very seasonal and can only grow at a minimum altitude of 12,500 feet (hello, Himalayas) and sells for $100 a gram. The soup at The Cosmopolitan uses the highest breed of chickens to make the broth along with Longan berries, Chinese dates, and, of course, cordyceps.

A5 Ozaki Tenderloin, Don Wagyu; New York: $180

This is definitely not one of the sandwiches to include on your list of “grab and go options” during the work week. This particular sando is made with beef raised on a single farm in Japan that comes from one of five cows that are shipped to the US each month, exclusively for Don Wagyu.

Cup of Kopi Luwak Coffee, Klatch Coffee Roasters; San Francisco: $75

Paying $75 to get your day started seems a little steep, but this isn’t your everyday blend. Only sold at Klatch Coffee Roasters, these beans take an untraditional scenic route through the digestive tract of Asian palm civets (a relative of the cat), which leads to shorter peptide chains and a superior flavor. The beans are thoroughly cleaned before roasting, but we’ll still hold off on trying the most expensive cup of coffee.

16-Ounce A5 Wagyu Ribeye, Prime 112; Miami: $230

Back in the day, this was how much I had to save to buy my own iPod classic. Now, it’ll get you 16 ounces of the best beef on the market. Claiming to be the first modern steakhouse in America, Prime 112 offers the crème de la crème of steaks as-is allowing you to relish in the luxurious flavor.
