I will always get others opinions(as you have)cuz it has helped me see the light many times in the past, but go with what YOU want in the end. Nobody's right and nobody's wrong on this topic. We've all seen what the shortbeds can look like(awesome), and with these pics that SK posted, we all see what a well done long can be. Anyone who doesnt like that blue/green longbed with flames needs a trip to the eye doc. You will make the right decision... but, all that cutting and fabbing is too much work for me. I would make it what it came out of the factory as. This is why I have a longbed that I will keep forever and I'm looking for a shorty. Just another opinion. Tim
