Short box vs Long box

Meh...I'm a web designer and mountain biker...as much as I would like a longer bed, it isn't a necessity, and I enjoy the manual. As for looks, I'm married with two kids...what do I care about looks?

 

I'm just rattling your cage anyway

 

I know, I can take it. Besides, I'm married with two kids...

 

My DCLB has the baby toy bucket mod. I have and old bucket in the back with some of my babies toys in it. Whith the cap it is a great make shift play area he cant escape out of.

 

Why when I read that, I hear it end with "Officer..."

 

Short box, access cab, short bus

For looking, definetly Long Bed.

 

Short box on DCs and long box on ACs (not that there's a choice on the AC).

If you're using it as a sport/off-road truck I think they perform better with the shorter frame than the longer frame.

 

As opposed to function where, nope, still the long bed

 

Lifted long bed

 

Meh, lifts are to accommodate taller tires, taller tires are typically for off road clearance, if the truck is mainly used for off roading I can see how a short bed would be preferred. A long bed is typically for those who use the bed and need the room, and those who lift heavy things in and out often, so less lift would be optimal.

Of course there are also those who do both, and those who just do everything because they're approval junkies, and I'm done typing.

 

Short bed for sure,but both look good on a Tacoma.

 

Why is the word "looks" sometimes more prevalent than "function" though?

 

I just don't need a long bed to haul the items that i do and it's what i prefer....

 

short bed because 6 speed is just way more fun

I load the crap out of my short bed daily as I'm a contractor, it just takes a little patience and skill and I can usually get everything in or on the racks.

Even though my bed is 20% shorter than a long bed my cap is 20% taller than regular so I guess I still have the same cubic capacity under my shell as you Mr OZ-T DCLB lover?? haha

DCSB FTW again!

 

Tall caps suck balls

Dude!!! Do you work, or just TW all day??? Your posts are frickin' EVERYWHERE!

 

Bob pays well

 

53 pages of back and forth. Good thing Toyota sells both short and long

As for me, I just ordered a DCLB- but I've had one ton "real" long beds my whole life so a Taco long bed should feel like a sports car to park. To me it's like 4x4 (getting a long bed)--- ya may not need it daily but when you do you sure won't feel lame.
