Yeah money does matter, the truck before adding the crew is already approaching my budget. But I don't want to spend $30 something thousand on a truck and regret it not having enough room. I would definitely stick with the standard bed if I was to get the SCREW. That would be a huge truck with the extra 1' on the bed.

I've really enjoyed my super cab, but I'd do a crew if I had to do it again.

I have a 6.5 bed on a Screw. If you can deal with the shorter bed the truck will be way easier to find!! I had to get one from a neighboring state. The Truck is about 20' long. Rides great though Longer wheel base = better ride. If you are on the fence go with the Screw.

Just had the same dilemma. Just ordered my very first pick up.

A 2012 Super Crew, so glad I did. The little bit more space will make a huge difference, IMHO...

the super cab is fine. i have 4 kids 2 teenagers and it fits them just fine. but i do have a 7 passenger traverse for long road trips. i also work construction and have no problem piling in 3-4 guys for a lunch run. they always comment on how much room they have.

By the time u need the extra room for your potential kids you'll be trading that thing in anyway. go for a loaded super cab!

If you are the type to keep your truck for a long time go with the screw. If you think you are going to trade it in within 5 years go scab. Reason being is that if you do have kids, you won't really need the extra space for a few years. I have a screw and my kids love all the space in the back.

Regarding the bed, if you use your truck bed a lot I highly recommend getting the 6.5' bed. I have the 5.5' and I regret not being more patient when looking for my truck. The extra foot would be so useful to me.
