    wish I had got the long box, but it wouldn't have fit in the garage with the double cab.

    Oh well. i'm still happy with the short box.

    The turning radius and shear looks sold me on short bed,

    It appears to me that a full size ranch quad will fit just fine back there too so long bed can suck it:p
