What a truck!!!

Even though it's not a ford I have to give my props out to designers of this truck. The 10ft bed (No, it's not a typo!) could come in handy at times.

A nice truck. It makes a lot more sense to me than all these 6ft bed on 3/4 & 1 tons. Say what you want Dodge does have a REAL DIESEL. I own an older Dodge & an older Ford and I like the Dodge. In fact I spend less time fixing problems on it than I do my Ford. And the Dodge D250 is our regular driver. Until we return to Nevada where we have a 1993 Chevy Lumina sitting on the ranch. I believe in supporting my local parts houses not my local new car dealers. The Chevy was FREE.

A mega cab version would be impossible to park I think. Some of the F450 CC Long bed trucks barely fit in 4 parking spots. How long would it be anyways like 30 something feet I'm guessing.
