I use a 4 door short bed truck, and here's why. I need to pick up my kids half the days of the week. I don't have a van anymore because I do demo work and I got tired of riding inside with the dust. I just build a wood rack if i need to haul more. I'd get a 4 door, long bed truck, which would be the best ever except it's just too dang long to park. So when the kids aren't around I fold up the rear seats and the tool boxes go in there. Is what it is. I long for the days when I drove a car with a toolbag in the trunk.
They used to make single cab trucks with a bench seat to fit 3 people total and it still had a full sized bed. If you've only got 2 kids that design would probably have been better for you, but they don't make many of this style anymore.
