    Oh Oz, you slay me. This is the second time in recent memory that your need to spout a condescending, snarky quip has outpaced your reading comprehension.

    Read my sentence again. I never said I parked in a spot that isn't 12" longer than my truck, though I've parked in several that were not much longer than 12" longer than my truck.

    What I said is that I've parked in plenty of spots where I didn't have 12" to spare. Meaning there was no way a DCLB would fit in the spot because my DCSB BARELY fit in the spot.

    If Toyota made a regular cab with V6, I would've probably gotten that instead.

    That is exactly why I got the DC, that is what I wanted. Front big enough for 4 passengers plus some reasonable amount of truck bed attached.

    I could have went with some sort of SUV but I have had several SUVs and several pickups before and the number of times the SUV came up a little lacking for my particular cargo needs pushed me more towards the truck option.

    Now I emphasise that was based on my needs. Yours may be different.

    Why? Wouldn't a V6 powertrain swap into a 4-cyl regular cab 4x4 be easier? :p

    Pretty sure that's the Explorer Sport-Trac. It's a full frame, but I think it's a FWD... it's "not even" a Ranger.

    I drive a 2010 sr5 access cab. It does it all. the only problem is transporting adults in the back. after 1/2 hour it gets cramped. but if I worried about that,I would be driving an suv and not a truck!
