The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network - View Single Post - Q: Why is there so much bed shortening going on?

My daily driver is a 2wd, lwb, 3/4 ton truck that I like better for it's 8 foot box and I do think it looks more like a truck. I am fixing this truck up nice but it will be used for hauling dirt bikes and maybee a camper(hey it is a custom camper) so it won't be perfect. I would like to find a truck for a full restoration and I like the look of a lowered swb but lowered lwb trucks look kinda cool also so I think it will come down to what is avallible when I am looking to buy another truck. One thing for shure is these trucks are a blast to drive and they all look cool.
