    Long beds give you a place to put the kids and wife when they get on your nerves. And the can frolic and play in the vast space.

    Also. A foot shorter truck would have been just as stuck but a foot taller truck would have had a chance...

    This is special concrete. Super slick coated with never-dri so I can slide my bags of Malaysian sweat shop t-shirts around the shop with ease.

    Short bed plus ATRAC turns that bag to dust. Therefore no high center.

    BTW, The stance of the truck looks awesome.

    I am torn... I was originally looking to buy a LB but found a cheap SB so I bought it. I have been very happy with it but sometimes wish I had the extra bed space. I like the looks of both in different ways. In the end, I think I would have to say SB. A shorter bed can be solved by a bed extender or tie downs but a Locking rear diff would take quite a bit more to replace. Plus, its way easier to park and better wheel base for off road uses.

    Frustrated? Sucks when the facts are laid out in front of you and you finally realize how bad you f'd up!

    Like I said, I'm sure you'll find some young dumb kid that you could sucker into buying that frodo mobile and then you could get yourself a real truck.
