I know your feelings exactly. I first had a 2007 F350 CC long bed and then traded for a 2012 F350 CC long bed towing my 5er with the pair a total of 14 years. Loved the trucks for towing. But not as a daily driver. Small tight parking lots were a pain. Parking garages were often a no go making having to find alternate parking areas at places that had no open surface parking. Sold the 5er and downsized to a 2022 F150 CC long bed. Still long but not as high and still can not whip into just any open parking place. But much easier than before.
