Ok, the short bed on a full sized truck (4 doors) is the same length (as far as frame lenght goes) of truck with a full 8'bed and only 2 doors. The frame in...

I've been pulling my gooseneck with a short bed p/u for about 15 yrs. Haven't ever had any problems. The only thing I can say about a short bed is you can't...
I plan on going on this ride this year. Will either go up Thursday after lunch or Friday morning. We went last year for the first time and it is a wonderful...
I think I worded the original post wrong. In turning radius while backing, I meant how sharp can you back, like getting into a camping slot, without getting...
Well I appreciate the input. Thats kinda what I expected. Those used to a long bed arent happy if they go to the short bed. I dont think I would jacknife...
Karen, I hate I missed the swimming lesson. Hope to meet up with you guys in near future. I rode the Spanish Trail Ride which left out of Coldsprings for the...

Karen and I use a 2001 Chevy crew cab shortbed. Other than not being able to carry much in the bed, espcially with a toolbox, we have no problems towing our...
I have pulled many u-turns with our 01 Chevy short bed and never came close enough to the cab to worry about it. Backing is the only time I pay close attention...
Wow, this is one of my biggest fears..years ago, this happened to my farrier... Can I ask..were there 'emergency' chains?.. if so, apparently the didn't hold??...
I've noticed that a lot of people are from the area north & north east of Houston. I'm in the Montgomery County Trail Ride Association. Are there any other...
Just adding to the comments on short bed, long bed, backing, etc. I have a CDL & used to teach truck driving in the Marines. And I learned from my dad, who...
Some very good points to remember. I have checked my hitches on trips also to make sure they weren't tampered with, and thought I was being paranoid. I just...
Yes, all trailers and trucks manufactured after a certain date are required by law to be equipped with the safety chains, but my trailer is older so I can pull...
Thanks Jim and Ron, Laura and I were looking for folks to ride with all over Texas and truly never thought this group would take off like it did. Thanks for...
