If all your going to do is tow then a short bed makes sense. If you ever plan on using it like a truck, get a long bed.
Which is better a Ford, Chevy/GMC, or Dodge (RAM)???
Are you buying a truck for yourself - or what posters on an internet forum prefer..:h
The above -and other posts are good advice, worth modifying:
One ton truck = yes (unless YOU have some reason not to)
SRW or DRW (dually) = YOU decide which YOU prefer or "need".
Long or short bed = YOU decide which YOU prefer or "need".
Why the "options"?
Any of the above will work just fine (meeting YOUR preferences or "needs") *unless* the 5th you want is really, really heavy ("must have" a dually).
*If* that's the case - visit the SKPs MDT or HDT forums, and learn about serious tow vehicles & skip the LDTs.
Happy shopping!
