Better ride, no slider hitch, more room for STUFF or a bigger toolbox to name a few.
Most newer trailers will pull behind a shortbed with no slider. The choice of short or long is more a preference these days than a necessity.
Yup UNTIL........
Yup UNTIL , when ?? 14 years towing with one. NEVER hit the cab. NEVER used the slider. NEVER needed or wanted a tool box in the bed .
Ron, YOU need a long bed , many don’t, it’s simple they don’t want or need one . There is no UNTIL.
I love the NEVER comments as it has come back to bite many on this Forum and others.
I simply gave MY reasons for having a LONG BED.
Kinda like short man syndrome when the SB guys get all twisted with simple opinions and facts. Then they start the gang mentality to reassure each other that their compromise truck won't ever be an issue.
Everything involves compromise. Short bed or long bed, half ton or HD, SRW or DRW, etc. Some of us are fortunate don't need a dually's load capacity to haul our wife around. :B
I’m sure you mean the stuff she needs :B
Compromise, I Suppose having to have a slider is a compromise . The bigger compromise for me would have been getting a long bed to eliminate the slider.
