the mega cab is only offered with the short bed. looking at the specs you will gain 20 back seat room over the quad cab w/no sacrifice in the length of the box. theres also some storage space added behind the back seat so the added 20 isnt all legroom. the wheelbase is 20 longer. what this means is the mega-cab truck bumper-to-bumper is 4 short of being 21 long. that means it wont fit in my garage. prolly wont fit in quite a few others either especially if you put a brush guard urban car catcher on the front and have a big ugly hitch ball urban tailgaters radiator punch sticking out the back. in this neighborhood you park a fine ride like this on the street or outside in your driveway and you risk getting vandalized or broken into if not stolen once a year or so. bobbins@nyc.rr.com writes i have an 04 diesel ram 2500. i really like it but could definately use the extra cab room. any opinions on the new mega cab also does anyone know if there are plans for upgrades to it for the coming year thanks in advance tony .
