One bike is enough but two would be cool. I'd like to be able to close the bed, will 6 foot do that for me?

 

It's really not that bad but it doesn't grip like carpet. The ultimate would be some snap in carpet. It wouldn't be that hard to do.

 

is it safe to assume it will never go in salt water?

 

a bike is roughly 6 and a half feet long

 

So are most 6' beds.

 

Grew up in blasdell lived in hamburg and Lackawanna went to frontier high school. U lived in buffalo??

 

I'm accually going back next weekend just for the Erie county fair to get my eat on lol

 

So....does than mean I'm good for a 6 foot bed..?

 

I have a 6' s10 and I haul my bike but if I want to close the tailgate the bike has to sit on an angle

 

If you angle it. Two will fit with their rear tires on the tailgate. Do you not own a tape measure?

 

Grew up in Hamburg went to Frontier.

 

I have my parents bring me Chivettas when they come to visit. That **** is so good.

Those terrorist ******** blew themselves to hell and the people on the boat barely noticed.

 

I'm at work buddy I figured if I'm buying a truck to haul bikes in, I should ask the guys who used to haul bikes in thier trucks

sounds like general consensus is 6 foot will be fine, unless I'm missing something

 

Haha I have a gallon in my cubberts lol what about beef on weck??? Every time I stop at tops and buy a container of the **** they put on the rolls <<<--this **** is the only thing I miss about buffalo. Well can't forget about Thursday at the square

 

The Explorer sport track type beds are the only ones that really don't work too well.

 

I like WNY better than Detroit. People are nicer, the bars are open later, and there are some decent slopes an hour away. More **** going on in Detroit though.

 

I forgot about the bars deff miss that

 

Don't get an s-10. Buy a 1/2 ton if you are going to haul your bike on the regular.

 

A full size truck with a 6' bed will usually be able to close the tailgate. If you want a mid size truck, you'll need a long bed which is only available with certain regular cabs. Your best bet would be to measure your bike and measure the truck you're looking at. I'm sure they are not all the same size. My F150 could close the tailgate on my 929 with it mounted straight but just barely. If you're willing to put the bike on an angle, you can close the tailgate on anything that's not a crew cab (1/2 ton or smaller).
