6 foot or 8 foot bed in Mexico
Used to truck camp in the 1980's with 6 ft. Dodge and slide-in popup (4 Wheel Camper). Now buying new truck and camper (again slide-in popup) for use mainly in Mexico. Want to know from others' person...

Thanks Rottidawg! Good point. Yeah I am thinking the double cab rather than crew for the less length. That you are happy and do 4WD makes me feel better.

The longer wheelbase the more "interesting" the back roads become:
