Looks like the bed is what is "now" called the standard bed, 6½'. If they put a full 8' bed on that monster cab, it will take a full 40 acres to turn it around.

It will also take the back forty to park it as well. AKA Megatron!

I agree. Think Ram was flirting with the idea with the "long hauler" or a mega cab with a 8' box a few years ago. Didn't seem to pan out for them. But boy what a nice fuel tank with that length. Grocery getter it ain't. My dog would most likely like it though :B

Or my dog, which is the only thing living that hangs out back there.

Watching the video it looks to me very deceiving. It may be a faring or other body work as the window area is plastic and it doesn't look like a fulle 'mega'cab style SD.

Wow... Ford copies RAM's best attribute "The Mega Cab". I suppose they're also copying GM's best attribute too "The low lying DEF Tank".

Maybe we'll get a frame that doesn't twist so I can open my tailgate too! :B

I guarantee the frame will be a modern design like the RAM and GM are.

Maybe RAMs next generation HD will get a modern design diesel engine too. One could only hope! :W

The HD ecoboost is interesting for sure.

Intresting. An ecoboost super duty would be very interesting.
