Check this out- someone put dual controls in it...

Ford : F-450 | eBay

 

thats kinda ugly. if it was mine, id have gotten a extra cluster and dash, cut the drivers section out of it and put it where the passenger side is. so its mirrored

 

W...T...F???

I'd buy it and put it back to factory...

 

I've seen some trash trucks with dual controls, but I can't figure out any other application...
I was looking for a replacement for my truck, and if this thing is OK, I'd use mine as a donor. My dump bed, T-case & axles, & a lot of the interior would go right into it...
I'm gonna try to go look at it tomorrow.
Should be interesting...

trash truck is cause thats where they have to be to get the trash containers, mail trucks and cars cause mailboxes are on that side. other then that im not seein much of a reason. why not ask them what body was on the truck before.

 

5k aint bad price in the commertial vehicle market and that thing is clean
i agree for it needing gauges etc on the other side and all but its unique for sure looke like a legit setup but my concern would be is it drive by wire? or a mechanical connection also since theres no gauges on pass side it problly wasnt drove like that on highway or at any speed
my buddy has a lot of rhd cars and hes a pro driving on the wrong side

 

Around here, theres alot of these for mail vans. Most common ones were older Dodge Caravans witch are mostly still in use!

I'm awful curious what purpose this one had to need a second driver

 

If I can get away and go look at it, I'll try to find out what it was...
It's at a used car dealer. It's a good bet they bought it at auction. I doubt they'll sell it on eBay, unless they really get the right bidder. If not, I think it could be had for a lot less than their buy-it-now price...

 

thats a nice one phy.
good luck.keep us posted on what ya find.
axle code 73 = 5.13 right?
their specs claim 4.63,but also a 460 truck,so i wouldn't trust them lol.

can you get by with a 2wd truck though? that's the problem with these things.man ford really limited themselves pre '99.crazy i tell ya.

 

Perfect for when I fall asleep, then my son can just take over!

 

It's for the back seat driver when you don't have a crew cab...

 

or for those crazy drunk drivers who ride with a drunk friend. they can both take the wheel and see who does better hahaha.

 

its for when your girl friend is rideing with you, so instead of her complaining about your driveing, she can just take over..lol

 

be great of teaching my step kids to drive

 

always blame the wife when you get pulled over !
