If you are going to order a truck, my advice is to get the short bed. It will be much easier to park and maneuver when you aren't towing. Many here will argue that you need a slider but I have towed our fiver for six years with a fixed Pullrite hitch and have never needed a slider. My first hitch was a slider and I sold it after a year since I never actually "slid" it back. I just don't like the noises made by the play in the hitch and the movement they can have with a slider.

As for parking your 40 footer, you just have to be careful and pay attention when you get to that 70 degree (plus) angle. If you are mindful when backing up, you can make a short bed work for years!

Good luck in your search for a truck and a camper. Keystone is never a bad way to go!
