Default 2014 Scab 5.5 bed?

No, not a Raptor.


Go to Ford's main F150 build and price page, you will see a gray F150 pulling a boat, there is an arrow on the right side of the screen scroll through two more pics and you will see a bright blue FX4 Scab, with what sure as hell looks like a 5.5 bed.


It's not a 6.5 bed Scab, I know because I have one, was this something that Ford was thing about bring back and didn't?

It's been up for years, they always photoshop the same old truck to have the new model years look. It's the same thing with the f150 sales brochure, I have the last three models years brochure and they all have the same pictures, but they change the grilles and headlights and whatever other options are available that year.

For example here are pictures of a lariat from three different model year brochures, it goes from 12 on top, 13 in the middle, and 14 on bottom and all they did was darken the color up a little and called it kodiak brown metallic vs. the 12 having golden bronze metallic.

Ever time I see a SCAB 5.5 combo the more I like them. I for one would like to see them make a comeback in the new body style. The 5.5 bed is good enough for me, and the decrease in overall length from a SCREW would be nice in town. I'd go put my down payment today on a '15 or '16 SCAB 5.5 XLT with a 3.5 EB and offroad or FX4 package if it was available.

Me too, that's why I posted it, I suppose I could always cut 12" out of my frame and find a 5.5 bed?
