    the "long bed" of this truck is hardly a long bed imho. the short bed might as well be a trunk...

    How about the wheelbase? Can you take a DCLB into city parking garages without getting stuck on those spiral things?

    Bought a 2015 Pre Runner V6 SR5 LB kept it 2 months then bought aTRD Off Road . Like the SB maneuverability much better. The main reason for the TRD was that I missed the 4wd I had on the two trucks I owned before the PreRunner. I know you do not have to buy a TRD to get 4wd but I like mine and would not trade for a LB 4wd.

    I seldom haul anything large enough to require a LB.

    Understand that what works for me does not work for everyone.
