Alrighty, so here is the deal. In an effort to test your vast knowledge of trucks I have come up with a little contest. The first person to correctly post what is WRONG with this photo will get a Diesel Power sticker.

Be SPECIFIC with your answers, vague or partial answers won't count. I need what's wrong and why.

You have to post your answer here, and PM'ing or EMailing me won't count. The contest will run until 5pm PST Friday the 28th, if nobody has gotten it by then I'll post the answer.

Good luck and let the guessing begin!

Is it a gas pot Dakota. The truck looks small and there is no soot in the stacks.

it's a toyota tundra with the tailgate cage and dual stacks. there's no reason for it to have exhaust stacks coming up out of the bed

You guys are close... I'm surprised that nobody else wants to take a shot at this...

its a 1997-2003 f-150, it has a factory bed extender. obviosly f-150s didnt come with a diesel so its a gasser with stacks, but its a supercrew which you couldnt get till i believe they started offering in 1999 or 2000. and its not a light duty f-250 or a 7700 because they didnt offer them in a supercrew.

Well I don't know where this guy is from but where I'm from that exhaust system would fill up with rain water in no time. Also I don't think the stacks are tall enough it seems to me that you would be getting exhaust noise and fumes in the cab at stop lights when the windows are down.

It's a Ford F-150 Super Crew Gas with what appears to be working 4"x18" stacks on 2 5/8 pipe.

Just grasping at straws here, but the front top of the bed appears to have a hinge for a tonneau cover (that's off-center, by the way). Hard to use a tonneau with stacks!

Mr. Fordtranstech nailed it first.

It is an '03 F-150 with stacks... how wrong is that!

Fordtranstech PM me with your info and I'll get the sticker out as soon as possible, I have it sitting right here...

Now for extra credit can you name the model of '03 Ford F-150? That will make it even more wrong to have stacks on it...

Thanks for playing everybody, we'll do it again when I find another crazy photo like this...
