I am not sure whats the rub here, its a class 6 truck, they cost a lot



and if you look at the second pic in the OP, the sign overhead says "commercial vehicles". I don't think they intend to offer this the same as an F350/3500. Its not really the purpose of the truck.

swing and a miss by the OP on his intentions to mock the diesel/dually fanboys.

In fairness, if you spend 75,000+ miles a year in your truck or run a tow or snow plow business, you probably want extremely comfortable seats.

Do you have to have a GED to drive one of those?

Chevrolet will be offering a pickup bed from the factory on some models.


I dont see that in the article, but they do sometimes throw 1 ton beds on aftermarket at the builders. Most of the time those trucks still go into commercial service for hauling horses, boats or RV trailers though.

I dont know if you have ever been in the cab of one of these. Even the nice ones are no where near as comfortable or luxurious as an entry level 1/2 ton

Agreed, it fills a niche market for sure, but theres definitely a market for it.

How’s this much different from an F-750?

Throw in a gooseneck hitch to pull our travel ball home away from home and I'm sold.
