I'll guess Camponotus pennsylvanicus or Fusca group Formica because Novaeborecensis and any of he red Formica would be way too obvious even to newbie iD (In my opinion

We can't make the slightest guess with this description. We don't even know the location in fact.

YOU IGNORANT FROG PEOPLE, THE ANSWER IS CLEAR!
This is Pinkomyrmex pseudomagnus! (formally known as Camponotus pennsylvanicus) 
This fluffy boy is actually only 1 inch long, but it uses its featherlike antennae to make it look larger.

 

[Serafine]

Sorry but Pinkomyrmex isn't exactly what I would call HUGE. Surely they need lots of room because they love to walk around but they themselves are actually rather small and rely more on numbers than on raw strength.

 

I'm still pretty sure it's a giant fur ant from the Fluffonotus genus.
