Mines a single cab but I'm single with no kids so it works great. The gooseneck ball gets in the way sometimes though.

I would be miserable with those new 5'6" bed trucks. For one, they look stupid and two, there's no way you can fit much back there

Mine came w/ the bed extender, which not only took up tons of room, but was pretty much worthless.

I took it out the first day and put it back in when I traded it in.

Based off some of your posts, I would think all you need is a short bus...

I just like that I can put 8' stuff with the tailgate closed.

What do you mean? An 8' bed? I don't think they make that in crew cab half ton.

I'm buying a Crewmax tundra that has a 5.5 bed. If I need plywood or something it can stick up out of the top of the tailgate.
Oh and Diamond back bed cover.

No, in a 6.6 bed 8' material fits cross-ways.

You can get an f-250 8' Crew. You have to put red flags on the back though.
