Short bed vs long bed looks.

Beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder.

 

Had gen 2 long bed, Now gen 3 short bed. Don,t haul that much anymore and don't miss it. Still nice to be able to haul some dirt,mulch or whatever once in a while.

 

Man, all the semantics and mental gymnastics in this thread trying to define what a long and short bed actually is. Would it make y'all happier if it was called "Longer Bed"?

All of your trucks are beautiful. Except for that one guy with the really ugly truck. You know who you are.

 

Longbeds seem to look best on access cabs. On double cabs the truck looks very long.

 

That’s why I said except DCLB.

Both ACLB and DCSB are exactly same overall size and wheelbase.

 

35's

 

DCLB = Limocoma

 

Longer bed = bigger rtt = more room for activities.

 

I chose the Long/Regular Bed because the short bed looks a little stubby IMO.
Stock, it does look like a limo...

Though, I think with bigger wheels and a lift the Long Bed looks the most balanced.

 

Adding a roof rack helps out the LB too.

 

If they had a DCLB with 6MT, I think I may have gone that route. I saw a DCLB with a lift and 33's at the dealership. Looked real good.

But in the end, doesn't matter much. 1 foot, big whoop. Give me an 8' bed for getting some real work done.

 

I also want a 6MT DCLB.
Sadly that may never happen.

DCLB was necessary, I can live with the slush box.

 

Nice graphics!

 

I love the functionality of the long bed, but it just looks off until you add accessories and bigger tires, etc. I have no problem with either though - people put too much thought into it. To each their own, I guess!

 

A truck only looks good if it’s in a good looking place...

 

Only thing I regret is not getting the long bed, you can sleep in it & I like the torpedo look.
Best way to break up a long bed is to put a too mount tool box up against the cab imo

 

Short beds definitely look better but I miss the capacity of a longer bed.

 

Access cab for the win! Best proportion ratio of any configuration.
