Yep, it is long. Very long. Hopefully it won't look quite so huge once the rack and canopy are gone.

I would have preferred a short bed, but the price was right and the guy was very willing to trade as he was hurting for cash (he was in construction...). Most similar trucks locally were priced at $8000 or more from private parties. And I got some greif at the DOL cause they thought it was worth almost $10k.

One nice thing about the long bed though. The extended range with the larger tank should be nice on long trips.
