Looks bigger than your typical stray.
Ears point forward.
A friend thought Bengal cat that got loose or dumped, but I guess they are worth some $$.
 
Without a reference to compare sizing, it looks just like my DSH tiger stripe cat. There are savannah’s and servals which are much larger with similar striping but their legs are usually much longer than what you’re specimen has.
 
having one (my avatar), even without seeing the facial stripes, I'm leaning heavily towards a Bengal. Very well could be a standard tiger cat, but Bengals are typically larger than normal, and would also fit with the description.

Maybe a feral tabby?
Ears seem to point forward and neck and body seem like he’s a roid freak!
I agree it’s hard to tell w/o something to compare it to for size.
