Why? If I'm going to haul something heavy enough to need dual rear wheels and put up with the width anyway, I don't want to be worrying about trailer-to-cab clearance. Having the long bed has been a great relief since we moved up to our F350.

An F350/450 CCLB DRW will cost about $1500 a year to register in California, F250 is about $850. And a short bed will fit on my, and most garages.
