    Except for the fact that you'd max out load capacity long before I would.

    Right, forgive me for leaving that detail out. On a scale of 1-10 how gut wrenching is it hearing your t-case scrape the asphalt every time you hit a pothole?

    Would've gotten a LB, but it wouldn't fit in the garage so I got the SB. A LB would be easier to sleep in.

    Unless you're a midget. Then a SB would be perfect.

    I voted short because I hardly ever do outdoor activities. If i do, then i would've gotten the long bed. Either way, I like both. It all depends on you.

    I like my long bed, carries a lot of shit and when your friends are well off it helps when they need shit moved and you're glad to help. I would've purchased a SB if I had bought an Off-Road, just because ORing with that extra twelve inches would've been scary.

    Oh well, I made a good purchased. I wanted something similar to what I drive in Afghanistan, only with windows, less armor, and less MG mounts.

    That's weird... I have one of those thingys that turns and says H2, H4 and L4...
    Pretty sure that means its 4x4...

    When I move out there (fingers crossed), I'll be sure to stop and help you carry all your stuff, that way you don't have to make two trips. Just a TW member helping out another TW member.
