Fleetside or Stepside
« on: February 05, 2010, 07:55:55 PM »
Okay, what kind of bed do you guys like on a Ranger?

Im personally a fleetside guy.  I dont like how some of the stepsides look against the cab of the truck and how small they make the bed but some may like that style!  I just want to know what everyone likes best!

And post up a pic of your fleetside or stepside!

Fleetside for work, stepside/flareside for looks. My votes would cancel each other so I won't.Pics of 97 f-150 shortbox flareside work truck. I know ,I went against everything I just said-I couldn't pass on the deal.I made aluminum sides for the top of the box so I could fit a regular topper on. A small bonus was a sliding upper shelf.

I saw a stepside XLT today and it was lowered like a race truck stance.  Would have looked 150% better with a fleetside on it!
