Arrow Is The 6 Door Coming To a Superduty?

I have use for this 6 door configuration but would rather it on a 250 V10.

Any idea if it is coming soon?

I don't think theyll put it on ay time soon. They just redeisnged the superduty. I would like to see that on the superduty though. I don't see why they put it on the F-150 and not the superduty. hmm. At least they put towing mirriors on the F-150!

You could do that yourself on a superduty.

All it is a short box bed on a long box frame.
Then add the compartment box between the bed and cab.

They make these for alot of the utilty trucks beds.

You would have to talk to someone about ordering a truck with the short box on the long box frame !

Or take a long box truck and swap a short box bed and the compartment bed.

Talking Too cool

Really looks great. Would look better on a Super Duty. Very functional. I'd love to see it on my next truck. That should be about 200,000 miles from now. But i'm game.

I being young with strong knees to hop in and out of the bed just see it as more moving parts to maintain or that will break. but i completely see how it would be useful in some apps. like the utility bed mentioned above. a couple of tool boxes down the rails that stop before the extra doors, walk in tool room.

Tell you what I'D like to see. On my extended cab, rather than the back doors opening like "suicide doors" I'd like to see them on a slide hinge like a minivan side door. I don't know how many times I've been in a parking lot trying to put something in the back seat of my truck, and having a hell of a time doing it because somebody was parked so close next to me that they knew what brand of underwear I was wearing.

I'm with Gunner on a sliding type door on the SC's. Or a replacement hinge that would allow 180 degree rotation. These doors are just a pita in parking lots.
