Is it that hard to find a truck

[HDRider]

GMC, Chevrolet, RAM, or Ford I can't find what I want. Any Brand - No dealer in my area has one.

Regular Cab, Diesel, 4WD, Dually, Automatic

What's the dang deal?

Is it because you want a regular cab? Seems like nobody wants those anymore.

The kids call a regular cab a canoe. Only three people can ride in it, and uncomfortably at that. For resale sake you may want consider something bigger.

Boy aint that the truth! All I see at dealers are the 4 full size door jobs that have about half of a bed.

If a delaer doesn;t have what you want they can go on a dealer hotline (kind of like the parts hotline for junk yards) and usually find just about anything you want. Then they buy it from the other dealer or do a swa with them and sell it to you.

Ya those are hard to come by in my area to unless u buy a new one then they usually have to order one.

 

[HDRider]

Ya'lls right. That regular cab breaks the deal. The four door adds 3 or $4K to the price.

Ext Cab is almost as bad too. Took a beating when I sold myne.

I think I know where there's a few rams if your interested. That's the exact truck I bought in 07 except I didn't want a automatic, I got a 6spd.

I know those late model Four door Fords are like getting an efficiency apartment with the truck when the back seat is folded up. Why wouldn't you want a 4 door other than the added cost?

I didn't want it because I don't have other people that ride with me, I don't need to haul that much stuff in the cab, I don't need the extra lenght, I don't need the extra weight, and by the time I am done with a truck resale isn't a big deal anyway, after 10 or 15 years I've got my money's worth. So I wouldn't give you 100$ for it on a farm and work truck.

Now for a daily driver and making longer trips I sure wouldn't mind a long bed 4 door daully. In fact that will be my next truck and I'll keep my current truck for feeding and working.

I have stuff to carry in the bed and those full size 4 doors sure cuts down on pay load space

Maybe look at commercial trucks. Any reason not to have a flatbed? Insurance is DIRT cheap and they can take a beating.

Regular cab truck is like a Day Cab semi. Worst thing about either is that all the crap in the truck gets put on the passenger seat and/or floorboard. When you come to needing the space, then your cramming all the crap into the middle area. Add a 3rd passenger, then your in for fun.

I would seriously consider atleast an extended cab. Having that little extra room behind the seat gives alot of storage for books, rifles, supplies that need protection from the outside, etc.

If you don't have the people requirement for a crewcab, a crew cab just allow you to keep more junk inside the truck cab.

 

[Brute 23]

Ya I wouldn't own a single cab any more. There are some tools and things I like kept in the cab.

 

[jedstivers]

I have the crew cab to put all the stuff I have to carry in the cab in the back seat so I can have room for at least one person in the front with me.

Find a dealer that specializes in commercial trucks they will might have one.

According to my kids, this is the in thing @ high school...gay couples. I suggested they not go for the in thing in that case!
