Re: [RC] long-beds V. short-beds and goosenecks - Laney Humphrey

A long bed also lessens the chance of popping out the rear window of the cab with the front of the trailer if you forget and turn really sharp!
Been there, done that when I had a short bed!

Related question: Other than the space issue alluded to by  Lucy, is
there a "problem" using a shortbed with a gooseneck?  Is it less stable?

I haven't found my short-bed to be unstable - we're just thinking about getting a new truck and I always missed the long-bed in my original 2x4 truck (which we had to swap, needing a 4x4).

With the long-bed I could fit more hay, more building
materials, etc... in it. Last weekend I had to bring home
some 16' long 2x4 wood. That was pretty interesting with
the short-bed :(
