im bum'd your gonna make it a shorty though...everybody's got to have a short bed...i think the long beds add so much more to the style, especially with a moderate coil/spindle drop (stock, no bags)...but hey, to each his own right...im sure it'll look awesome whatever you decide to do with it |

Re: New guy From Oregon
I have one of both. I think I prefer the long box, but the short box fits in the garage better..
