One of the reasons we are going from our 02 PSD Excursion (when we sell it) to a new (most likely 11) F350 is for this reason.
From your pick, it looks like you have the standard bed. I have heard the carts will fit with all tires in the bed, you just can not shut the gate. How is it working out for you?
What are you using for ramps to load the cart? Then what do you do to secure it?
Don't mean to hijack the thread, but I am curious. I am also interested in the thread topic as well. We will need some sort of cover when we make the move to a P/U Truck.

I have aluminum folding ramps that work great. They fit in the front storage in the trailer when folded up.To tie it down I use ratchet straps. It fits in the ford better than the chevy I had. The extra bed length of the ford makes it easier to haul.

You are hauling just like I am expecting too. I am planning on buying some 9 or 10 foot folding ramps to use. I would need to keep the ramps in the bed somehow while traveling though (if possible). My pass through storage on the trailer has a lot in it (although I may be able to shift a few things if the bed proves to be impossible).
To make the angle up to the bed, will a 9 or 10 foot ramp work?
From what I have read a lot of people are able to keep the gate on and just wrap the support cables around the latch (essentially leaving the gate open at about a 45 degree angle).

Thanks for the info, I am sure every inch counts and Ford does give us a little more.

I use an Egual-I-Zer hitch, and they sell and extended shank that will give an additional 6 inches behind the truck as well. I may look into one of them. They say it does not cut down on capacity either.

Yes they guarantee against "FADING" however - they dont guarantee against chemical spills like diesel fuel stains!!! It turns the entire area purple and they wont repair it under warranty.

That is good to know about the Bedrug on installing. Looks to be a great product. When we eventually do get into an F350 I will be torn between the Bedrug, DualLiner and Line-X. All seem to have some strong points.
