Re: Idea for spotting fake shortbeds

Look for the middle stake pockets on the bed. It's an obvious giveaway that the bed has been cut down. No paperwork needed, no SPID pic required. They are left behind 90% of the time. Even if the tops of the bedsides have been "filled in", the pockets will remain.
