Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

I wont ever look at a long bed more than a minute, weather I see one at a car show or just going down the road and happen to spot one. The long bed IMO looks awful compared to a SWB, now to each his own, but I will NEVER own a lwb truck.....EVER!!

But then again I dont use my truck as a workhouse

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

AH......if it was only that easy.

I don't think guys need to get over this. This site has a lot of banter that goes on all the time. I would certainly hate to think that anyone was really getting worked up over this.

Over on the Mustang forum guys go back and forth over the coupes and the fastbacks. Same thing. There's no wrong answer......'course I have a fastback.....hehehe

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

Reported for having a ford :lol: jk prostreet

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

No worries....there are very few fords I would ever own. A 67 fastback just happens to be one of them. If it wasn't for a client of mine passing away and his wife having no interest, I wouldn't even have that.

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

diesel I'm very sorry you had to see just how good a lowered swb can tow a boat at the nationals. It was also really easy to throw my luggage, cooler, and spare parts.

as the owner of a pretend truck, I feel the need to show the lifted and longbed guys they aren't the only ones that have a truck.
see ya in september! :)

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

Makes you wonder why they've always made long and shortbed trucks,huh?

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

I like them all, SWB, LWB, 4x4 2wd all 67-72's are cool.

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

I like the longbox in these trucks but for an extended cab or crewcab I just perfer the shortbox. You can haul alot in a shortbox if you have the suspension to supprort it.

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

I feel so sorry for you long bed owners, you are all so absolutely envious that you actually try to tell us short bed owners that short beds suck! :lol:HaHaHaHa! We know it's just a defence mechanism you long bed owners use to make yourselves feel better about your disability!:waah: Dont think we short bed owners dont feel for you! We do! It is impossible for us to actually know how horrible it must be to want what we have, but we try, I just yesterday closed my eyes and tried to imagine the pain that it must be to own a long bed! I imagined that both my rust free short beds, my 69 C10, and my 72 GMC 4X4 were as long and awkward as a freight train, I have to tell you, I got the chills and felt a great deal of despair! I had to end that exercise in a hurry!
Try not to let it get you down! It's not the end of the world to own a long bed (must feel like it though) Hang in there! Your day may come! Good luck and keep telling yourselves how cool those train cars are! Try to pretend you dont need binoculars to see the rear of your truck while standing at the front! You will be okay!;)

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

Oh my goodness.....that was a bit too far. IBTL!

(prostreet is now running for the fallout shelter....hoping the 3/4" steel walls will protect him from what's coming).

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

I hope it wasn't me? If so I really am kidding!

SWB is where it's at... Screw a longbed... Thats what a trailer is for. :)

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

Now I understand why I like my LWB....its really denial, I never knew it till you explained it like that :lol:.

J/K, that is too funny!

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

Both of mine are long beds. Unless they are parked nobody will know the difference since all they will see is my tailgate. Zoom zoom! LOL

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

I am so glad I could help you out! I feel your pain! (not really, I'm just saying that so you don't feel alone) I feel compelled to add one more thing, feel content in the knowledge that you aren't the owner of one of the biggest mistakes in GM history, the long stepside! Oh the humanity! Can you imagine the terror it would be to wake up, walk outside and realize the long stepside in your driveway wasn't the horrible nightmare you thought you had that night! Those poor guys spend a lifetime trying to recover from that horrendous error! Good luck and hang in there!

Dieselwrencher... what kind of bus is it? :smoke:

If it's a C-50 style - see below

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

Well it sucks to be you because there are some dang nice long bed trucks out there. And I own a very long long box, so get over it. :lol:

It seems a lot of people are haters. I just want one of each because I like them all, and surely can't afford 3 or 6 of this body style right now.

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

It is actually a 95 F800 bus. But if I see any C50 buses around I'll look for some gauges for you.

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

Really...makes me wonder. It's like someone who only eats McDonalds Big Macs or only likes blondes with shoulder length wavy hair, 36-24-32, 5'9", size 8 1/2 shoe, blue eyes, light pink lipstick...:lol: I'm just sayin'...:cool:

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

Very true. I just want a blue eyed blonde that can carry 16-foot lumber to the house is all!

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

yummy.......

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

Long bed trucks are "Real Trucks, Used to haul and work" Short bed are for "Play Toy EX Camaro, Chevelle..." Thats what I see when I look into a Longbed and Shortbed. Not saying ones better cause they both have there ups and downs.

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

This one hauls all my camping gear plus tows the boat. By the way it has a 14 bolt one ton rear under it so it would haul 1 to 1 1/2 ton if I wanted to put it back there.

Re: All you SWB guys are killing me...............
 

^ Im not saying shortbeds cant haul, im saying long beds NORMALY haul. You never see a long bed drag car or what ever, but you see alot of short beds. BTW you do have a pretty truck. I like how it matches your boat.
