Long bed Values Vs Short bed Value

[ortegamotor]

I have to tell you guys , I follow the market on these trucks very closely , and I have to tell you that long beds are quickly catching up short beds in value. Over the last couple of years i've noticed a shift in the willingness for people to purchase long beds over shorts bed. With all these show on TV and the idea that it's cool to think out side the short bed. It has open a whole new market for me. I've sold at least 5 long beds in the last two years and I have to tell you. The price keeps going up for each truck. I remember back in the day when you went to look at a LB truck all you had to say to the guy was "too bad it's not a short bed" and the advantage was on your side. But now with people buying these old long beds and returning them back to stock or mild custom. People are seeing the value of the long bed and the price I'm buying for now and the price I sell them for now has gone up across the board.
