Short or long bed?

The biggest advantage to buying a Tacoma is the smaller size. The biggest disadvantage of a Tacoma is the smaller size. If you get the DC long bed you have the same length as a 1/2 ton with a regular cab and an 8' bed or an extended cab with 6.5" bed. And a 1/2 ton extended cab rear seat is about the same size as a DC Tacoma. But none of the advantages of a bigger cab, more payload and more towing. Fuel mileage is exactly the same anymore.

The long bed on a regular cab or Access cab Tacoma makes sense. Not on the DC. You get all of the disadvantages of a Tacoma, none of the advantages. If thinking about a DC long bed you're better off buying a 1/2 ton.

 

I can’t wait until I’m old enough to rock some moccasins.

 

Maybe this: not a fine Italian shoe, but instead a casual, low-ankled steel toed boot .

 

Oh cool is that one of them handicapped shoes?

 

No it doesn't cap your handies, it caps your footies.

I remember my first shoes.

 

But it is a handy, capped shoe.

 

Guys that drive long beds sit down to pee

 

Only when we want to. As opposed to double cabbers, who are forced to because a) their wives make them b) potty training class is in session.


Least we MAKE the choice .

 

For me, the long bed is so much better for my Jon Boat or canoe to put in the back. I put my canoe in my PRO a few weeks ago and it would not stay in and bounced all the time. I need one of those extenders that plugs into the trailer hitch.

I see it’s passed Members Bedtime LMAO

 

I remember the only shoes that mattered

I believe these to be true to the access cab.

 

If you wear Depends, you can pee anywhere.

 

those look like womens shoes

 

I can't make out what those are.

Back in the day...[everybody groan now]
PF Flyers were the ones to have.
Nobody could catch me when I had them on.

 

I was at work one day and a guy in a suit was walking through the jobsite.

This big guy with tattoos turned to me and said, "that guy was gay, did you see his shoes?"

I replied that imo, the man who noticed what shoes other men were wearing was usually the one who is gay.


Not hating, just my observation.

 

I drive a BCLB ((((

 

I wish I could wear chuck taylors all day. Unfortunately, I cannot.

 

Short bed. DCSB is the only option for the 6MT. unless you want an access cab sport (or live in Canada)

 

I drive a ext cab half ton at work all day, I’m more than happy to jump back in my DCLB at the end of he day. It’s still much easier to park and more nimble than the half ton that’s only slightly longer.

Pretty much all you see where I live is DCLB’s a handful of AC, and I know where all 3 DCSB’s are parked that I’ve seen, and then there’s the other two 2nd gen short beds I’ve seen. I’d say it’s like 100:1, LBvsSB where I live, it’s an island with 125,000 people who apparently have no issues driving a DCLB.
