Went from 8' to two 6.5'ers to 5.5' screw and don't regret it. Parking is easier and they look fine to me. I do have three trailers 8', 15' and 20' so that may make it less of a trade off for me.

I park out in BFE anyway because I don't want anyone hitting my truck with their door.

Amen. Always park away from all the idiots out in the hinterlands. Need the exercise anyway!!

Since my last two trucks had the 6.5 bed, I was not going smaller.

Having had a SD crew w/8ft bed you get used to parking away from everybody. With the new truck it will continue. each person picks what they like, i chose a 6.5 because the 5.5 looked way too small, maybe there are some advantages, i just didnt see it.

That truck looks AWESOME. I want a lift so bad but don't want to sacrifice mpg.
what kind of mileage do you get with that beast?

I think its funny you guys consider a 6.5 screw a long truck. It is not long at all. Like already mentioned, it's considered a short bed. I use to drive a 2007 ram 2500 crew cab long box in a congested city. Now driving a 1/2 ton it feels tiny.

So do I but I always get that one jackass who parks right next to my truck when the entire lot is empty. So annoying. I swear they do it on purpose because one time some guy parked within inches of my driver side door.

that's happens to me all the time, so annoying.

One time i had a little car squeeeze in between my passenger side and the vehicle beside me like literally 2 inches away from both vehicles... I don't even know how they got out of they're car

Who can honestly say a lifted Screw with a 6.5 like this doesn't look perfect compared to a stumpy short-bed???!!

Favorite truck on the forum, I'm a little biased with the dark blue 6.5 screw though!!
