This happens sometimes, rarely but sometimes at the factory.

Two eggs are fertilized by the same sperm and a split embryo results.

Sadly, the owner must decide whether he wants to save the front or back of the pickup.
Both cannot survive as there is but a single gas tank.

It gace me the greatest idea thougt. I would drill small holes in the bottom of the front compartment and put a keg in their and stuff it full of ice and put a tap on the dash. Is it considered an open container to have a tapped keg in a vehicle?

Quality is Job 1.

Or it is some very bizarre custom order!

Thanks for taking the pics - that is a real oddity.

Seen it on the 08 brochure from the dealer I believe it has slider drawers or compartments for the WT package.
Thats the first one I have seen in a real life situation

Looks like a legit option!

You might be able to get an F150 with 6 doors!

That is the new option for the work truck series. There is one on both sides with slide out drawers and shelves for storage. Kinda cool, but it takes up a couple feet of space in the bed. They swing out just like regular doors and lock with the truck keys.

If I needed a true work truck, this would be a good choice.

Yeah, they're kinda like the Model A. Comes in any color as long as you like white.

Yeah, I remember seeing an article in a magazine about it before it was released. Tool box built into the truck. I like it.

With the oddball bed, this will be the really cool truck at the 2060 vintage truck shows.

I hear the drawers come out, and you can get a couple of bird dogs in there.
