Ask yourself 3 questions:
1. What will I be using the truck for?
2. Is my choice feasible for my truck?
3. Can I afford it ??!!??





I was married by a judge
I should have asked for a jury!

1. what will I be using it for? It will be my baby, I have a beater for all the hard hauling. But I may install a fifth wheel, so towing probably the only thing.

2. Is my choice feasible?? Yes I think it is.

3. Can I afford it?? Yes of course...I just can't find a SHORT BED!!

I think I am going to expand my search for a long or a short bed, if I come across a long bed....it will be cut and shortened. I would just prefer to find one that will not have to be altered..there aren't many around these days anymore, I hate to ruin a good long bed to make a great shortbed!
