From the factory, only in Mexico and 2wd...

All the ones I've seen were custom/chopped frames.

Didn't Dodge make a 2500 4x4 reg cab shortbed? I swear I have seen a few runinning around. I know I have in fact, unless it was a 1500 cloned to a 2500, saw it yesterday at wal-mart. 4x4, shortbed, cummins, 2500 badging. Ill have to see if i see it again and get a pic.

hey folks thanks for the replies
I wonder why they don't make em... probably not enough demand??
reg cab long beds are O.K. but I dont really need a bed that long...
I Think a F350 Lifted reg cab short bed with big *** tires would be bad *** ride

You mean would ride like azz, right?

I don't think regular cab short bed trucks look good at all, they look stunted to me. I have a crew cab short bed and I really wish I had held out a little longer and found myself one with a long bed

If i had a crew cab i would prefer a long box too. But a Regular cab looks Perfect with a short box.

reg cab / long box is ok . Prob what i will end up getting. esp if you need the extra box for hauling / loading crap in the back, but what's the advantages over a short box if you don't?

extended/super cab with a short box looks stupid because the box is to short
and extend/super cab with a long box is like driving a damn limousine
(just my opinion)

I just want the strongest frame / suspension / drive train i can get in a consumer truck for driving / off roading / occasional towing etc....

I think aspect ratio of cab to box is perfect with a reg cab / short box.. Any one else agree?

I'm sure lots agree, but I don't, I like the reg cab long box look, biggest thing with me though is that I do like to load my box up and having the extra 14 or 16 inches whatever it is would be really nice, for your desire though its unfortunate they do not make it.
