i have been looking through the many books we have to make a large lv 6 humanoid that can carry a small halfling on its back, the idea behind it is that i has a high base land speed and can smash things, its really a flavour cohort but i want it to be somewhat useful, can anyong think of a good build for this?

Is monstrous humanoid ok? half minotaur from dragon is 1LA and the cheapest large character around. If you cant use dragon, then its the 2LA half ogre from races of destiny.
However, paying an NPC wizard to permeantly enlarge a human is my preffered method and least damaging to your character.

Scout4/barbarian2 gets a decent +20ft speed IIRC.

spell less ranger (CW)6 gets +10ft speed. A nice plan for the ranger is then going scout4/highlandstalkerX.

claws of the panther from CV will be a nice addition to a scout/charging cohort.

EDIT>goliath peregrine runner is nice.

...Why not just ride a real mount? Oh well, flavor I guess.

IMO the naturally large race for a cohort is a vastly better option as it cannot be dispelled.
