In the same vein, it costs more to restore a LWB (especially if you have to buy bedsides and floor like with your truck) but you'll end up getting less for it when its done. From an investment standpoint, its hard to ignore the value of a SWB.

If you don't plan on selling the truck and prefer a LWB, its a moot point, though.
