Well prndl, As mentioned, you can not haul anything 8 foot long with the tail gate closed, like a sheet of plywood etc. Friend of mine has dented his rear window pillar by turning to sharp (almost broke the rear window). Usually the short beds have a much smaller fuel tank forcing you to stop more often for fuel. I for one have a tri fold tonnue cover that I can fold up twice and tow the 5th wheel to my destination and unfold it to cover the fire wood that is in the bed.
