One Bootmobile is a Ford F-250 Super Duty truck[3] made to resemble a Bean Boot. The steel and fiberglass construction is 13 feet (4.0 m) tall, 20 feet (6.1 m) long, and 7 feet (2.1 m) wide.[4][5] Another is a customized Chevrolet Silverado. A real shoe of comparable proportions would be a size 708.[6]

There are three Bootmobiles.[7] As of 2024, a fourth is being developed for production.[6]
