6 foot bed works great for me, new trucks with the tailgate down gives you plenty of length for hauling 4x8 sheets of OSB.I still think crew cab pickups are just wrong. You're giving up too much bed space.

Just no.
I had an extended (non crew) cab pickup as my first truck, but there wasn't room for human beings in the back "seat." Great for putting stuff, though...except that the handle to open the back door kept breaking. Thanks, GMC.
Replaced it with an extended (non crew) cab full sized truck. Plenty of room in the back seat for people, even adults. I have a friend who is 6' 7" and he can comfortably sit behind me. Then again, I am pretty short, so my seat's up there. Anyway, I digress. I hardly have enough passengers to need the back seat as a place for passengers. Plenty of room for putting stuff, though.
Realistically speaking, I could get by just fine with a single cab pickup as long as it has at least a 6 foot bed, and I really miss dad's old '94 SIlverado. Single cab, 8' bed, best truck we ever had for hauling firewood. The other Silverados he had were OK for it, my Tundra does well enough, and his current F-150 does fine, but that long bed Silverado just rode better with a full load of wood, and the engine never seemed to care that the bed was full.
