    Nice. Ive had my 884Xs laying around for a while because I'm nervous that they wont give enough lift for my 285s. Looks like it would be enough. I know reg cabs on here have gotten between 2.25-2.75 inches with them. Hoping to be in the middle somewhere haha

    There were a select few reg cabs that got the 3.4 in them from the factory.

    So recently I have been having contemplations of selling my reg cab for an extended cab. I went to look at a couple today and as soon as I sat in one it made it worse. Me being 6'4 my knees basically ride against the plastic and pretty close to the steering wheel. I love the short wheel base and tight turning of this little guy but hauling my bike I have no room to store anything. The extra storage room and leg room plus bucket seat is kinda leaning me towards an upgrade. I am over thinking this and am I gonna miss the rc too bad?

    You probably won't miss the reg cab as tall as you are. I carry very little and am about 5'10'' so I fit nicely. I would miss my truck because I have had it for so long and love the compact size off road. If all that is keeping you back is easier parking then I would just upgrade. The access cab isn't a huge truck and would be very comfortable compared to the reg cab. Having a dog makes things cramped, especially with 2 people when its hes being a wuss and wants to be in the cab. Ill be getting a shell for him pretty soon.

    I fit tons of crap in my truck. You can store a lot under the seats too. I have a first aid kit, knifes, flash lights, gps and trash crammed under mine.

    Usually the storage problem is when i take my bike in the back. Then with my helmet boots get crammed on the floor and my clothes behind the seat. That doesn't leave much room for a passenger. Think i need a storage tot i can throw my crap into and leave that in the bed.

    So this past winter I was due for an oil change and didnt really wanna do it in a cold garage with no heat so I took it to the dealer. It has taken me 8 months to realize that someone at the dealer moved my seat all the way forward. I knew something didn't feel right. My blondness strikes again
