Holy crap
I test drove a '97 F250 last night. I cannot believe the turbo can even spool with that crappy squished down downpipe

This particular truck wasn't quite what I'm looking for.
I'm going to check out a '97 Supercab today.

a 97 cc long bed is the perfect truck! you can fit 5 girls comfortably, and about 9 squishing

my only biatch about my truck is not getting the cc, but i couldnt pass up the deal to get what i have so i can live with it, i have thought about measuring up and swapping a crew "cab" to my chassis and a short bed. but i dont know how friendly of a job that is or if the frames are even the same length

^^^ to much work and coin would be involved, not to mention you;d be liable if the next owner of the truck was driving down the road and the cab popped off, lol. Save your cash and buy what you want, IMO.

i like my cc but my next truck will be an ext cab short bed.
the cc's are nice and roomy but sometimes how big it is gets annoying.

You'll regret not going to the CC. You could always get a CC shortbed
