IN PHOTOS: Deion Sanders shows off swanky new Ford F-650 supertruck
Deion Sanders was hired as the new head coach of the University of Colorado football team in December, and so far it seems that he is truly embracing his new lifestyle. He has been seen wearing a Cowboy hat around campus and bought a home shortly after being hired by the university.
Deion Sanders just bought a new, custom Ford F-650 super truck.
The standard model — without any of Sanders' additions — retails for about $150,000.

Now, he has purchased a custom truck to help him navigate the rough terrain and inclement weather. In a video posted to his son's YouTube channel, "Coach Prime" is seen admiring his new Ford F-650 Super Duty truck in the driveway of his home.
The truck, which his sons referred to as an "18-wheeler", costs $150,000 for a base model. This truck is customized and even includes a custom emblem on the grill that reads "Prime". With all of the upgrades, including a matte black finish, the coach's new truck could have cost up to $300,000.
In the video, the new Colorado head coach is heard saying that his truck is so tall that anyone who rides in it will have to jump like NBA superstar Ja Morant to get in.
"You've got to jump like Ja Morant to get in my car," he said.
Deion Sanders will definitely need that oversized truck to navigate the roads next fall when snow begins to accumulate.

The game will kickoff at 12 pm EST on Sept. 2, 2023. It won't be an easy matchup for the Buffaloes. TCU had a standout season in 2022, defeating the Michigan Wolverines in the Fiesta Bowl for a trip to the National Championship game. TCU came up short of a national title after being defeated by the Georgia Bulldogs in the big game.
This will be a rematch of last year's season opener, in which TCU defeated the Buffaloes 38-13.
