2009 Crew Cab has new box size

Now I just don't know what to do. I was plannign on waiting for the crew cab to be available in the HD trucks. I was assuming it would have the Mega Cab length frame and might even have a full 6'6" box or even better a 8' box. Unfortunately Dodge descided to make it even smaller, 5'7"
Guess I need to start looking at man vans again. Or I should just drive my 04.5 till the wheels come off. In the shop today for a CP3. Fortunately I still had 3k miles left on my 100k mile warranty.

They are? I hope they offer a 8' or at least a 6.5' box with the Crew or Mega cabs. My fish house doesn't fit in my box right now. Needs 2 more inches.

Wouldn't it be great if the new Hd had this new rear suspension, but instead of the coil springs it came from the factory with air bags?
