how about a 12' flatbed on it? maybe a bit longer? we love having a porch on ours.

guy i got it from said same thing.. is 14ft from cab to end of frame..only thing is in michigan flat beds are considered commercial..

don't know your states laws so I cant say about that.

here in Washington state my truck is considered a commercial vehicle according to the auto license department. I have to pay an extra fee for my yearly tabs. for my insurance I explained what I use it for and how many miles I put on it. they had no problem insuring it as a private vehicle. maybe you dont get that option in your state though.

I know when I had geico insurance, just because it had a flatbed it was commercial in their eyes. it was no big deal really.

congratulations on the new hauler. id like to get a 550 sometime in the future.

Looking at it, don't thing it will need to be shortened that much once you add a storage compartment behind the cab. 🙂

was thinking about a back pack utility box..
