Well compared to all the other setups, a scab with a long bed is pretty uncommon. The trim level with all the options make it extra rare. Most of these trucks that I see are just a base XL work truck.

Thanks again guys! I know just how rare these are! I got the bed extender from AMP research, the same company that supplies Ford with the power step, running boards. They do make quality products. I have had an extender on every truck I have owned. The only problem I had was they changed the design and I don't like the new one, it is like a V and takes away most of the storage. I called them to see if they still had any of the older version and they found one in CA. Great company to deal with! When I first went to the dealer I was looking at the Screw and I couldn't believe they didn't offer it with a 8' bed! The dealer told me that he doesn't sell many 8'ers at all, mostly, as been stated, are XT work trucks. I use my truck for both! Of course I am getting up there in age and remember the day you would never, NEVER, use a truck for transportation / pleasure, unless you didn't mind going to the chiropractor! Today that is not the case, I have left some of my friends drive it and they can't believe they are in a truck. That's another reason I went with Ford, even back in the day when they drove and handled like tanks, Ford offered the best ride and performance. I did have to order it since not only did I want the 8' bed, but also wanted the Red Candy paint and the EcoBoost. Although it seemed to take forever to get here, it was worth the wait. The only problem I had was a blown rear speaker and a couple of fisheyes and a scratch under the clear coat. I am going in today to issue the complaint and have them add the well liners. I do Keep in mind that I didn't pay 42000.00 for a paint job or to say that I didn't pay 20,000 of the 42,000 for the paint but also they are suppose to be state of the art spray conditions and have quality inspections. As far as the speakers? Well I planned to replace them anyway so that isn't a biggie!
