When we started shopping FW's I had a F150 screw with a 5.5' bed. It was immediately clear based on the numbers and clearance that it simply wouldn't do. Even marginally it would have been a white knuckle experience and who wants that. I opted for an F350 diesel which is plenty capable and allows me to grow into another FW in the future if I wanted. The dealer I worked with actually schooled me on how to run the numbers which was very helpful. Unfortunately a lot of dealers will say anything to sell. I wonder if they could be accountable if some disaster occurs by advising on a combination that is unsafe. At the end of the day it's just math. Numbers don't lie.
