5 vs 6 ft bed

[Truz66]

Hi all,
My dealer tells me I am in line for a sport premium expected delivery in Feb but can’t confirm to me til Dec sometime . Killing me…. .

He says the dealership will have this trim with 6 ft bed only. I can’t see any side view photos anywhere of the same truck with 5 vs 6 bed size. Anyone have? Any other thoughts on one size vs other is also welcome. Functionally, size doesn’t really matter to me but I thought the 5 foot looked better from what I can see…
Thanks.

Can you just compare the 3rd gen to get what you want?

Ya, have since done that. Thanks.

6’ bed makes private party resale quicker.

Good point. Am also thinking it makes a retractable tonneau cover more practical given the bed space it takes up.

I found it hard to live with a five foot bed with my former truck. (2020 gladiator). A 6 foot bed is so much easier to camp out of as well.

For a Sport trim 6’ bed is fine. It’ll look good. If it fits in your garage go with the extra bed length

I prefer the tighter turning radius a shorter bed gives you

If I can’t get the five foot bed I’m not buying the truck. I’m giving my dealer my list of options of wants. If he can’t find it I will.
