Every now and then I question why I like long beds so much and then I am reminded. Most people I know are on the shortbed bandwagon and I just have to shake my head. Current DD has a 96"x102" flatbed and it is heavenly when I need to haul something.

I can remember seeing 3 complete longbed steps over the years. One C30, delivered rock salt; one C20, roofer's truck; and I think the third was just parked somewhere. I don't see many over here in WA.
