Long bed all day. I love the two extra post holes (two additional tie off points)
Quite funny, I hear all this talk about parking etc being an issue and have found that parking is the least of my worries. I had a crew cab long bed dually truck and I still park in my parking garage at work. I stick out some but I fit. Driving and maneuvering is fine. It's not like you can't drive it
I have never seen a 40k truck sitting abandoned in an alleyway or sparking garage because it got "stuck".
Drive thrus at fast food, no problem for my dually. I can do whatever I need to do I just have to do a little planning.
After owning both a short bed and a long bed there is no way I can go back to a shorty. Not only are they much less useful the don't look nearly as good :).
I would love to have a 1968 Chevy 2500 long bed, one of the most beautiful trucks ever IMHO.
