Re: shortstep or longstep

It would look sweet to roll in an 8ft step, cause you just dont see it everyday on an old truck. Only on the dooley ones but I dont think they count though. aww yeah opionions are like butt holes everyones got one. so that wasnt supposed to be negative either just something I read while lookin at a bumper sticker.

I would go short, but you might be time/money ahead and find a fleetside long bed...

Not too many long-steps around, makes it orig and different! Go with what you want!
