</font><font color="blue" class="small">( Next years model.... Code named for the development cycle, Super Mega-Giga-Monstro-Cab.
The marketing people don't much like the codename, so they are mulling over what to name it for final production. #1 on the list is good and simple and accurately describes the vehicle. <font color="green">Bus (with a bed).</font> /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif
Seriously, these half mile long trucks are getting ridiculous. I bought used and like what I got, but even then I had to settle for an extended cab. Whatever happened to the old workhorse standard cab, short and long bed trucks... where a man can be a man, take the dog and get away from the family for a while? )</font>
You want to know what happened to them? The "protect you from yourself police" happened to them. Everyone has to have a seatbelt and been sitting inside the cab, therefor anyone with a family had to buy a truck with a backseat and a shorter bed to pull the camper on the family vacation.
Can't do it like it was when I was a kid. we had a half fallen apart campershell (held on with "C" clamps ) if we were lucky. If we didn't have that we rode in the open bed on a beach chair, hahahaa... Can't do that anymore though so people are buying these super stretch seat 8 extended cab trucks.
