On my way to my dads house I saw this John Deer Work Tundra and thought you all get a kick out of it.

That's a long bed right?

Interesting. They seem to have added a plate of some type, looks aluminum, to the tailgate, presumably to beef it up. I like it.

Also a big dent at the top of the bed on pass side.

Several local companies in my area have changed their work trucks over to Tundras recently.

They should of painted in green like the tractor.

Good to see companies using the Tundra as a work truck.

I don't think thats a long bed...I have a DC and it looks like that.

I think it's a long bed. The tractor would almost fit in with the tailgate down. I wouldn't trust the (or any) tailgait though.

I agree. Looks like my 6.5' bed.

The 8' beds look strange to me after getting used to mine, and that pic doesn't look like that. (no offense to longbed owners, just different)

Notice the tailgate, looks like they added diamond plate. Also, looks like they already dented the bed rail.

I'ts a diffrent pattren of what you call diamond plt. We use it at work for Trailer fronts, Bed caps ,diffrent things like that. We get it in 4x8,4x10 sheets. Been thinking about making a cover like that for my Tailgate. Just hate to have to drill holes to hold it on. Not sure if I could only use cover holes.
