If i saw it right, the hearse for Pope Francis’s funeral was a modified DODGE RAM 1500.
When it backed up to the door of the basilica with the coffin the back, it looked like someone just made a run to the hardware store to pick up timber for fixing the benches.
Obviously the pope’s protective glass box is permanent, and must be slotted into the truck. The moment they decide you’re pope, into the safety box you go.
(Theres a 40K\golden-throne joke in there somewhere but I’m feeling lazy today.)
The American version would require a modified F350HD with a fork lift to get the Pope lifted into the back.
Edit: actually kind of hoping to see if they do that for am American tour when he visits Chicago and such

That’s fucking awesome. I want my hearse like that too.
The jumbotron really adds to the whole effect. I want that at my funeral too.
And rigged to roll
coalincense.They’re gonna chauffeur the new pope around in the killdozer
Man that would be metal as fuck.
Why forklift? The current pope isn’t that fat.
I just assumed it would be insanely high off the ground.

get into the terrarium your holiness
I never noticed that it changes from one country to another. I thought the Vatican just brought a ton of those and sent them before the Pope traveled.
