Why a short bed ? The factory fuel tank on the long bed used to be 10gal larger, is that not still the case ?
at least with a long bed you have room for "things" - including an auxiliary fuel tank (cause lord knows you'll need it) for increased range.

I see you are located in the great state of Texas. That state has facilities and parking lots designed for use with pickups. Up here in the unsavory and conservative north they refuse to make parking lots, drive thru windows, or anything else friendly for trucks. I used to have a 2006 CC LB and would never do it again, unless I move.

interesting. i have the old "leaf spring" front end (doesnt turn nearly as sharp as your coil spring front) and I've never had an issue in any city in the NE or mid-atlantic.
whats 2 more feet i say....152 vs 172 inch wheelbase...and a leaf spring front mean i just use reverse more often than coil front suspension guys....of course length of the truck doesnt have anything to do w/ width (and yes there are tight parking everywhere).

I would have to get you a picture...most of our lots including places like Home Depot have to meet parking quantity regulations so they make the spots smaller. A CC LB does not fit in a single spot at home depot, never mind a place like a shopping center or supermarket.

This is why I usually take up two spaces but rarely park up front. I often park way out in left field. I need the walking exercise anyhow ![wink [emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/wink.gif)
Nice lookin rig! Heated rear seats?! That must be new for 2015.

Finding two parking spaces can be tough in most lots. A place like HD you can find them but most other places its really difficult Having been to Houston many times I certainly see a difference in the quantity of available parking. I am sure though as a visitor I probably see a different side to the daily routine.
