Has anybody heard about a long box for the mega cab. Talked to a guy who said a dealer out west told him they were going to build it.

 

2 things.

(1) I think you posted this in the wrong forum.

(2) Dodge isn't making a Megacab Longbed, but there is a sponsor here is makes them out of the shortbeds. Its www.megacablongbed.com

 

www.megacablongbed.com the only people i know of doing it.

IMO it make the mega cab truck 1000X's better! if its less then $10,000 i see it as more then worth it!

 

Man them things sure do look sweet in a long bed!! Makes me want one now

DWiggs, have you thought about turning optimus into a megacablongbed?

 

I have but I don't know if (a) I like the look and (b) I would have ANYWHERE to park it! It;s hard enough now parkingh on campus and parallel parking outside my house! In Pittsburgh, my driveway makes it moot but it certainly isn't nimble!

 

I think it would look good D.Wiggs....I dont like the look of those rear fenders on the mega cab dually

 

I like the megacab dually fenders..............Kinda wish I had one........

 

Really for a stock dually fender I think the Mega Cab's is the best design out there, you can see something behind you and it probably won't cost $1200 to replace.

 

I love the look of the new Mega Cab duallies. Ive never been a fan of those gigantic fenders theyve been putting on the Dodges. Im almost considering getting one just for the looks of it, but Im a little more practical and leaning more towards the CC now that Ive got to look at them. If I was really looking and/or needing that big of a vehicle Id consider it, but losing my longbox is another thing Id miss. Also, if a longbox had those little fenders it might look a little dumb, but I havent seen anyone try it yet. Im not sure about a longbox MC really either, just a little on the long side for my liking. Someday though, I might consider it.

Well, there my .02

 

I did post to the wrong forum. Sorry

 

I was at the Detroit Autoshow this week and they say they won't make them unless there is a demand. You'll have to start a write in campaign.
Q

 

I just cant get used to the MegaCab with the short bed however, I think the longbed is the ticket. I am interested in seeing how this was done. If they would of had that truck sitting on the Dodge lot, I would of took one home, despite having no need for drw until I get my off-shore boat. Just talking about drw's makes me think back to the time when I ripped the fenders off two company trucks in a span of about three weeks.

 

I called them as we are going to be adding another mega cab to the family. The cost for doing this from megacablongbed was about $4500 so I did not think it was too bad?

 

I checked on it also. Thats what they told me about $4500 and 5 days. It will add about 22 inches to the truck. They haven't done a single wheel yet. Would like to see that.
