Uh, you obviously don't know anything about the Heavy Duty (Payload) package... They are odd, yes, but they exist...

Kids!

Just look to my NOT 500/100-it cant be 500/100 cause its so friggin' big!

I tow 6000lbs of Bobcat & Steel Trailer with it every couple of weeks.

The complaints of "no wheel selection" for 7-lug have reached mythical status on the net.

I believe the previous bodystyle F-150 7700 package and the LD F-250's were also 7-lug, correct?

I forgot to add. This is the 3rd F150 I've owned that was built like this. They all had to be ordered, because no dealer regularly carries them.

My handle is a reference to how smooth the truck drives when I head out to the desert at speed. The huge wheelbase is to that credit.

You see if Ford produced more of these really long wheel base trucks... it would make a Yoda look like a toy, in which the name states.

But on the lighter side... if the truck was longer it could have a 10' bed... for someone like me who uses their truck like a freight truck/dump truck.

Muah, I love your truck...

When I get my next truck, I am making sure it is VERY long.

I also want it so long that you need a monitor capable of supporting a resolution of 2560X2048 dpi so it can BARELY fit on the screen when I take a side shot.
