You hardly use that ... I sometimes wish I had a single cab with an 8 foot bed.

I have one similar to the link except it's a 98 , I bought it almost 2 years ago with 172k , has 208k now , paid 10k for it plus shipping it up from AR. to NH .


running up my post count some more .

Not me. After having a club cab truck there is no way I would ever consider a single cab truck ever again


And I have zero use for a long bed

Mostly just me in the truck , I use it to pull my enclosed trailer and race car .. it gets as much attention as anything I own .. been offered $22,000 for it but, can't replace it for that

I hated those early doors and half pickups, noisy , rattled. and you could get stuck in them in the burmuda triangle of doors

With those miles no way I would let it go for that in that condition. Mine is my daily driver and there isn't anything new that I would want to replace it with, there is TOO MUCH electronics in new cars today, we just bought a 2023 SUV for the wife and I absolutely hate it .

I bought a 1500 quadcab/shortbed in 98 when they first came out, I was driving an 89 regular cab 8 ft bed D100 at the time, and I fell in love with it instantly , traded it for a 2000 2500 Cummins Quadcab/SB in late 99 .... I still have the 2000 but it's rotted pretty bad. I only want a regular cab to turn it into a toy, I might look for a real clean 1500 reg cab, shortbed and put the drivetrain from my rusty 2000 into it.

When I was doing a lot of swapmeets in the late 90's/2000's was the times when I wished I had the 8 ft bed , otherwise the shortbed works fine for me.

I had a 2000 and a 2004 short bed and wondered what was I thinking? I have absolutely no use for a short bed truck and had forgotten that at the time... realcrazy

Since I use the truck as a daily, and I don't like to park a mile from a store, I get the shortbed as to keep the standard wheelbase. The one time I thought about getting an extended wheelbase truck , crewcab ferd with a 6.5' bed, and had to 3 point turn it into a parking spot with nothing in either spot next to is was when I decided I like the shortbed and will deal with it when I need a little more cargo space. fan
