DCLB OR?

I've seen plenty of DCSB. Especially in the Sport. But does anyone have pics of the DC LB OR?

 

There's pics. In the northeast they don't exist yet. Mines been on order for over 4 weeks.

 

+1

I have yet to see pics of this elusive beast. Mine is supposedly being built today ... if it does it's two more weeks to delivery!

 

We have only seen one at the initial press event. None have been delivered as of yet.

 

I haven't placed my order in yet because I'm not sure if I should get a DCSB or DCLB.

 

Nice, they do exist! Did you drive that one?

 

The ones arriving around me (Orlando, FL) have an availability date of Nov. 11 ...so nothing available to see immediately around here.

I am going tomorrow to take a look at what the local dealers have. Some show having one, or two, with some of the options (not all) that I want.

 

No I just saw it on Cars.com today.

 

If I go with SB, it'll be a Limited.

But, right now, it's a LB pushing me towards a Sport or OR.

Thanks for the pic @TRDPro4x4 .

 

I had a long bed on order and when it showed up at the dealer i passed because it looked like a limo... 1 hr later a short bed unexpectedly showed up on the delivery truck

 

I just saw one in MGM today when getting my oil change. A young couple was taking it for a test drive so I didn't get to see the interior. No pictures of it online and it's msrp is 38,220.

 

Bump. Anyone actually have one of these yet? Mine was built last Saturday ... chomping at the bit for it to get here!

 

During comparison shopping, i drove a long bed and it road almost identical to the short bed. The long bed looks way too long for me and i do not need the extra length.

 

Understand not needing it this moment, but you never know when you might. It's another foot! I have a 1st Gen DCSB and can't sleep in the bed, whereas my 2nd Gen DCLB has room for such things. Take a test drive with the LB, and see how you like it. That extra space comes in handy.

 

Indeed. I have a DCSB and as much as I love it, I hate every trip I make to the lumber yard, and every piece of furniture my wife decided she needs from Ikea. Lol

 

What about using a bed extender? Supposedly you get almost an extra 2 feet out of it.

 

If you use a truck at all as a truck, get the long bed.
Nearly every standard piece of building material is 8 foot long. In a 6 foot bed with the tailgate down, it's easy to haul. In a short bed with the tailgate down, not so much. More safety concerns. Furniture is another one too. Most things are about 6 foot long. I personally just feel more comfortable knowing that tailgate supports as much of the item being hauled as possible. Less room for normal, human error.

I had the opportunity to buy a short box truck when I got my second 250. So glad I ignored the SO and went with the 6.5 foot bed. Bigger beast to drive, but at least it's functional.

 

It shouldn't be called a bed extender, because it doesn't have anything to do with the bed. It basically is a tailgate extender and serves absolutely no purpose when hauling things around 8 foot long because you can't have them down. I see people use them for things like putting four wheelers in their bed, I guess it works for that but really doesn't for any work functions.

A long bed costs what, $275 extra on the price of the truck? A bed extender is about the same cost.

 

My points exactly, and last point not mentioned here is the ability to sleep in the back. I don't fit in my short bed either.

I love my short bed. It looks great proportionally, and it's easy to park, but it just doesn't truck the ways I need it to.
