I am surprised no one measured length/width yet with so many CT's around.

Well, no marker lights means it's under 80". So probably 79".

That said, it's difficult to measure a moving object. Very few of the photos are someone coming across one parked, without someone inside.

And by the time the chickens get wrangled, the parked trucks have mostly gotten under way.

That's a beautiful chicken specimen. What do you feed it? Is it free range?

Great questions! Also, by the looks of the text on that chicken, it belongs to Max. I guess he lost this with his bag.

Yes, I noticed that. I'm surprised that people have started branding chickens. Coming from ranch country, I'm very familiar with branding cattle. But I had not seen chicken branding as a thing. Maybe that is why they have become so difficult to wrangle together to take measurements.

That's not really much of a stretch... Even the F-350's I've had have not had marker lights.

only duallys would?

they’re otherwise 80” and don’t require
Possibly. I never had issues with single rear wheels so didn't feel the need to buy duals. I DID have one F-450 Lariat dually but didn't notice any change in towing capability. I only towed a 38' toy hauler camper and a 30' enclosed car hauler a few times a year and the cost of paying for more tires didn't offset the security in case of flats (Only have had one flat on the road in 37 years of driving...) Oh.. make that 2 flats... forgot about my motorcycle front tire going its own way about a month ago... my foot still hurts. But, all is well. And, duallys in that case wouldn't have mattered anyway.

Yeah. Well, that's all it means - it came from the factory 80" wide or wider.

🤷‍♀️

What I find funny are the little trucks with the four lights. They mean they with their truck was fat.

LOL. Could be. I put the clearance lights on my F-350s not because they were wide enough to need it but because I thought it completed the look from the front. I've gone from my big F-450 all the way down to my new-as-of-last-week Maverick. It's so little... It's going to feel like a big step up by the time I get my Cybertruck. I ordered mine in March 2020... So, I'm in the 400k range according to the database (or 100k range for tri-motors). I suspect I'll get it between August 2024 and July 2025. We shall see.

Oh, I WON'T be putting clearance lights on my Maverick!
