I thought I was on this forum before but I guess I just snooped around a lot to get info over the years. Haha
Anyways, I'm A.J. I just sold my 2000 Nissan Frontier 4x4 (Boris) and got a 2009 4x4.
I'm trying to learn as much as possible about the new truck as possible and figure out what I want to do to get it sitting the way I want. Basically I want it to be pretty similar to the old one. A little lift, BFG A/T tires which I was really pleased with and maybe a camper shell. I loved my truck and only sold it to get something newer.

The things I notice most about the long bed are that I don't have to struggle to fit my bike in there also pulling into parking spaces or making U-turns requires a little more premeditation.

This is how I carry mine. Made a mount to work in the utili track.

I actually just bought a $10 clamp off eBay and made the blocks for the track. I will get a picture of it today.

Long beds FTW! Taking wheels off bikes is for envious shortbed owners! :laugh: Welcome back to the Club.

Even with a long bed I love how solid this mounts my bike. With the bed extender I can fit it in without taking the front wheel off, but locking the front wheel in the cab deters theft as well. By the way, this is my road bike.

^ i can put a rack on my roof. I can securely put my bike in my bed lying down, no need to remove wheels and crank on my forks, with gear in me bed locked inside my canopy on a LWB. But it's cute to see short bed users try to compensate. :laugh:
