    Trading my '12 DCSB OR for a Sport LB on Friday. I've been debating this for awhile. My truck is Spruce Mica a beautiful color if you have alot of time to keep it up and drive improved roads all the time. I spend alot of time at my second home and it is dirt road country. Fair amount of time in my fields there planting trees, food plots etc. The lightest vegetation causes scrathes and although I use my equipment I like it looking squared away. Also love the SB look but find myself needing bed space too.

    I'm considering trading my '11 AC in next year and am sniffing around the DCLB. I'm not a fan of the DC, but it would be nice to give the pup more space in the back seat. No SB for sure as it's just too small to haul anything worthwhile. My only problem with the DCLB is that I would literally have to nose it into my furnace to get it inside the garage. I like the Spruce, but wish they had stayed with Timberland.

    DCLB FTW!! The LB comes in handier than I thought it would and mine is not a work truck. The DC is handier than the bed.

    I built one for him a while back. The problem is that he's not a small dog and is pretty limited to how he can lay down there. It's okay for running around town, but it would be nicer to give him more room on long trips-

    yah thats cool. I just don't know how much more room you would get with a double cab without building another deck for it.
