    All AC owners wish they had a DCLB eventually , that's a fact that has been established for quite some time

    Love my AC Sport, but I have a feeling that the 2015 AC with the Back Seat Delete is soon to be in my future.Toyota made a friend for life with that option. As for Double Cabs, I would get an RC first. If I wanted a Double Cab I will join the Taliban.

    I just made the change from access cab to dclb. I had to in order to fit two backwards car seats. Access cab will always be my first choice, dclb second and DCSB is not even an option as the bed is pretty much uses and they look like ass.

    I've never needed more space with my GF, dog and all of our camping supplies for a week. I even fit 2 kayaks on top. That's with 2 subs in the back taking up probably 40% of the space back there already

    I love me access cab, sometimes if I'm using it for work I do wish I had gotten a double cab, just for more room for equipment etc

    I wish I had a dclb. i don't want the short bed, but after putting my subwoofer in the AC and even if I have just a few bags no one can sit back there. Plus the 4doors with the long bed looks badass to me.

    ^ this. If those stupid storage compartments weren't in the back with no backseats, the AC would be a better fit for me.

    This is my second A/C. My first Gen was too small, but my second Gen is just right. Two things that will get me to buy my third is atv related. My 88 TRX250R fits in the long bed without strapping it down or putting it into gear. I simply pull the front end over the wheel wells then get behind it and push it in (that's what he said:p). Fits like a glove. The second is when I get back from a ride or a race, I can open both doors a little and change my clothes. Instant changing room. I thought about getting a dclb, but to me it looks like a whale. My kids would appreciate a dclb though. I think I'm an A/C lifer.

    Love my AC. I wanted a reg cab but 4 cyl and bench seats werent going to cut it (my wife is short). I also really wanted a full bed to haul stuff around. The DCLB is too big/long, might as well get a full size truck at that point. AC is perfect, i can fit stuff in the cab and in the bed and recline the seats during long trips. I dont really have a need to haul anyone around. If someone wants a comfy backseat they can drive :)

    The want for a DC typically occurs just as hair begins to show on your........... Well never mind.

    For me, the critical thing is do you ever foresee having more than one passenger for a prolonged time (i.e. road trips). Those jumpseats in the AC are fine for <20 minutes but nobody is gonna love being back there for very long.
    I think those jumpseats are so useless that for me personally, if I had an AC, I would gut them, gain some extra storage (maybe even put a cool box set-up in) and just treat it like a single cab with some storage in the cab.

    This.

    If I'm doing a road trip I'm not going to have more than me+1 other+dog.

    If I'm doing a quick drive down the street with a third person it's not a big deal. If they wanna bitch about the back seats they can fucking walk :D
