Any full size regular cab 6.5 bed trucks?

[bear123]

Thanks everyone for your replies! Yea we have been using it to explore since we bottomed out my wife's AWD Hyundai Kona. We got some Walmart folding cots that fit perfectly in the bed too.

Good thing (or bad thing) we have the V6 and don't need the DOD delete. I have maintained the truck well including trans filter changes.

Our biggest gripe is the suspension feels liked it's made out of rocks. Not sure if there is an affordable suspension upgrade for that.

Our Hyundai rides better on gravel roads.



Our truck tires are E rated 265/70/17 hankook ATM's. Maybe a better tire option?
Your truck’s stiff suspension and E rated tires make gravel roads harsh so upgrading to a smoother setup like those used in heavy equipment transport could improve the ride

Your truck rides rough because the stiff suspension and E rated tires are very firm
Heavy hauling setups use proper load balance and tuned suspension to handle weight smoothly
A softer suspension upgrade can help your truck ride better on gravel roads

Two of my most favorite reg cab builds here:

1968 Chevy K10 SWB Overlander

This one isn't a short box but it was an outstanding build:

Great White: A Chevy K10 Build

This is an ongoing tale of determination. I like the old 'square body' Chevy trucks. I'll keep this short on the blather and long on the pictures. I have lurked here for some time. Background: Raised in the holler, had to get out. I liked the holler. Went to school forever, didn't have...
