    I always bought short beds because I nearly never haul long stuff in the bed. Last trade I wanted a specific sport appearance package, and the only two within 500 miles to look at were long beds. No regrets, and it will fit anywhere my 53 footer will LOL

    I could on my 95 350, just couldn't lay sheets flat on the floor because of the radius from the wheel well to the bottom of the bed, it came in narrower than 48" right at the bottom and would crack the bottom couple edges. Got lots of practice on the last house we remodeled, 170 sheets total with maybe 5 wasted.

    Haven't hauled much rock since that project 9 years ago. I've realized that for not much more money the guys hanging around Home Depot will haul it, hang it, mud & tape it and have it done in 2 days not the 6 months I spent.

    The reason Im a chevy guy is, they made one small block from 1956 till 2002 and then the LS series, two basic designs. No cleveland, windsor, modified, triton, techron, eco turd. sure i forgot a few.

    This is my 3rd 250 and never had a issue with Rock or Plywood sitting flat on the Floor of the Bed, wonder if the 350 Bed is smaller than the 250
