How many P/U cabs on short beds have you seen damaged from a 5ver vs how many have you seen damaged on a long bed P/U? I was in Quartzsite for two weeks in January. After seeing 5 - 6 short beds with dinged cabs, I started taking pictures of them for my brother who is thinking of using a short bed.

Automatic sliding hitches cure that, but have towed with a manual slider for years with a shortbed with no problem. Awareness of a problem is key, not staying away from a shortbed because there is a problem. The key is to take steps to eliminate the problem. Just bought a new truck, and had no desire to go long bed. I see nothing wrong with a shortbed that cannot be corrected.
