A six foot bed has no additional value. When going looking for trucks I happened to notice that all available used trucks for sale were 6 foot beds. Therefore I surmised that most 8 foot beds were more desirable/ valuable.
Or maybe there was just more short beds for sale because they outsell long beds by a large margin for years now, so stands to reason there's more used ones for sale.........or long beds are inherently more valuable, lol.
With that type of logic, you could argue that long beds never survive long enough to be resold. This means that short beds are much more durable! Sorry that all you long bed owners will have failures that will prevent you from reselling them later...
