remember that DC is now owned by an investment group. They will be making decisions based on making money. I would look to see the number of choices in options cut some, not just in trucks. I would think it's hard to make every vehicle a hundred different ways and still controal costs.

If you are going to offer 3 cabs, I would think a regular cab, extra cab (bit of extra storage space and/or jump seat suitable for kids) and crew cab (with long box an option) would do a pretty good job of meeting most people's needs.

I couldn't see a reason to continue a quad cab if they are going to offer a crew that's like 5" different.

The mega isn't that popular in my neck of the woods, I'm sure because of the short box. If Dodge would have offered a mega-long box, with a sharper turning wide front axle (like the F450, optional on F350 dually), I think they would have been more popular.

I think they should offer a regular cab with enough room for a 6'6" driver or junk behind the seat, and a crew cab/quad cab/mega cab with 4 man-sized doors... both with short or long beds.
