Long Bed vs. Short on Resale value

My girlfriend says size doesn't matter .

It's not the size of the boat , it's the motion in the ocean .

 

Sorry for your loss.
And LB all day. Short beds are for hobbits.

 

Here at TW, whatever you want is wrong.
Want a short bed? short bed Baaaaaaaddddddd.
Want a long bed.......Short bed Gooooooooodddddd
You can not and will not get it right on this board......but good luck.

P.S. Buy what you want. Equal # of people want short / long beds.

 

Maybe 40 lb less, but the wieght should be centered over the rear axle if not a little forward of it. Good luck with the short bed. Axle is up against the cab.

 

This ^^

But with a tool box in the be the short bed would be very tight. works great with the LB

 

lol

No but the longer wheel base would improve the ride & stablity when towing

 

That was very nice of your girl friend to say that!

 

My unpopular opinion? It absolutely doesn't matter in a Tacoma. These are toy trucks, they are not haulers, they are not generally used as work trucks. You aren't really going to limit your sales audience with a short bed, as most Tacoma owners are posers anyway. A short bed fit's a mountain bike and a snowboard just fine. Honestly, 95% of Tacoma owners could easily do everything they currently do with a Highlander but a truck is much cooler to own.

 

I was talking about the small wiener issue. And yeah I do, but not on the road anymore. Trailer queen.

 

Lies.



Okay, I wish the Off Road package could be had with the normal sized bed.

 

PM inbound. And not just your nipple, but pages of your nipple.

 

Are you still talking about my 2 inch thunder ?

 

No, I'm discussing Beavis' nipple. Do keep up.

 

A Highlander costs more, I can't throw bloody deer and turkey in the back, and it's not as capable off road!

Anyone who hunts, fishes, or owns a home has a lot of use for the truck bed over owning an SUV. Just because we don't haul/tow heavy stuff on a daily basis, doesn't mean you could get buy with an SUV or only have a truck because it's "cool".

 

Out here in CA, there is no one single model or configuration that has higher resale value than the other, plain & simple. The cheapest version (5-lug, 2.7, manual-everything) still sells for an insane amount of money. This question is really hard to answer, because there really isn't a single Tacoma configuration that loses value.

If people are saying long bed has a higher resale value than a shortbed, they are simply stating personal opinion. I just sold a 2010 Tacoma, DC, Shortbed, PreRunner to CarMax, and got exactly what I paid for it. They were just all giddy like a school girl *literally* because it was a T A C O M A. lol.

 

Nipple nipple nipple, nipple nipple.
Vaginas are rad.

 

I wonder how long that will last as my user title....

 

Yes, possibly. I think it tops bad spuller.

 

Too lazy to change a meme to be worded correctly in support of my argument. Or i was talking to myself again. Not sure.
