Looking for an accurate model of a 2014 Ford F150 XL

I have a crazy idea of making a paintball tank that will fit in my pickup truck's bed.  Picture a pzkpfw IV in the bed of a pickup. 

 

I decided to start my building a scale mockup.  This requires a trukck bed as well as a tank.  I can mutilate a tank model or scratchbuild a tank from plans.  A model of of an extremely popular domestic pickup truck is surprisingly elusive.  I know that this is the 12th body style for the f150 but cant even find one from the previous years (2009-2014). 

 

Does anyone know of a f150 model that fits the year I need?  It has the 6.5' bed.

 

Tanks!

About the only two 1/25 F-150 kits I know of are AMT's 1993 model, which is really a nice kit, and AMT's 1997 extended cab in the Snap-Fast Plus line. Both have 6' boxes. Other than that, I dont think any exist. The rest are '70s models recently re-issued like the AMT Firestone truck which is a camper special mold, and Mobeus now has a '71 Ranger F-150 kit. They are 8' beds.

The only other possibility is the Revell Snap Raptor.  I believe it is a 2013, but it's closer to your target than the older kits.

Dont raptors all have the short beds?  Unless the 2014XL shares the bed with another year.
