    Saw a Unicorn

    Last night while Aiden was doing his practice driving I noticed a regular cab, F250 4x4, long bed! It looked to be a '20 or '21. I had heard Ford didn't build a reg. cab anymore, but this one was unmistakable. It could have been a modified rebuild, but the front end looked like the '21 F250 one of our owners has, and it definitely had a long bed.

    Probably only available in 8 foot bed. Bed plus cab must match a frame length they are making and they probably do not make a frame short enough any more for a regular cab and six foot bed.

    Ford, GM and maybe Ram all still make a regular cab trucks. That's how they can claim their max towing numbers and they have their place. Those regular cab dually's can haul 35k pounds, it's impressive

    Ford hasn't made a regular cab short bed F250 or larger for 40 years unless it was a custom order and that was years ago.

    Wrong about what? Ford still shows single cab long beds on their website.

    A guy I work with has a newer regular cab short bed F150 4x4....Not for me but it looks super sharp..
    I see quite a few Super duty regular cabs around here being used at landscaping companies and as plow trucks..

    And I was thinking this was the 7'6" Steez spinning rod.........

    but I will say I really like the look of a single cab truck......

    Not a lot carried on hand from my understanding. Normally people are looking for crew cab's and that is why lots are full of those. I'm sure they get orders for fleet trucks however

    You still see quite a few farmers up here with new regular cab super duties. Hard to beat that 8 foot box for functionality that’s for sure.
