The crew truck with a 6.4in bed is 10inch longer than last years truck. I have an 08 1500 truck and it barely fits inside my garage.
Quad cab truck is 227.7in long with a 76.3in bed
Crew cab truck is 237.4in long with a 76.0in bed

Nice truck, but still no vehicle leases available yet for canada.

just looked at a new 2500hd. the new crew cab is great. not sure exact extra space but much better than the old quad cab. should be comfortable for almost anyone. rides very nice and the new interior seems great. dealer priced me one on a loaded laramie. msrp 53,700. said no dodge incentives or finanicng deals thru end of year. not sure if he knwo for sure or not. came down to 48,500 without me hagling much. not sure how much further they can go.

I drove one on Saturday and it was a real nice truck. I liked all the electronic info available on the dash at the touch of a button. The Transmission shifted nicely and it had good power. At the end of the day I like my beat up loud 2004.5 better, just because it's a better tool for the job I am using it for.

I did notice that I couldnt see out over the hood as well, guess it may be the new hood!

Dang I checked out (online) a fully loaded Laramie Mega cab that is in transit to a dealer in Tomball,TX and it listed for 50K. Did he have lots of dealer addons?

The one I looked at was almost $52K and it wasnt even a Laramie...and no leather either. It did have the nav though, It was a 4x4 Crew Long bed!

No kidding, when I bought my 2000 F-350 it had almost everything and it stickered for right around $35K, I got it for $31.5K! Now the same truck would be close to $50K...Doesnt seem right!

That is inflation combined with the fact that vehicle manufacturers are making stuff that was extra cost options on trucks years ago standard issue whether you want it or not.

I will be heading down to my local dealer to see what kind of deal I can work on one. I have never paid anything over dealer cost so we will see..... Will probably have to wait until next Spring to really get a good deal. When you are looking at the only one on the lot SOMEONE is going to buy it

I really like them also. I am getting really close we will see if the ford outside starts this morning at 15 deg. I wonder what kind of deals can be had with them. I know they are new but every quarter dodge's sales numbers are in the tank. The only thing is I would want a cc lb 4x4 which may be hard to find
