Yep, there are a few companies out there making them. One is in TX. They have to add something like 20 inches onto the Mega cab to make it a long box. You bring them the truck and a long box, they stretch the frame, extend all the wiring, etc. If you are interested I think the cost without paint and you suppling the bed is somewhere in the $5-6 K range....

snoyes, got it right!! It's not a factory option but a company that does an aftermarket stretch. Looks really COOL

Would you still keep your warranty if you bought a new 2007 truck and did this.

The only warranty you void it the frame. There is a company in IL that does this also for $4-$5k (I think) with paint and bed. I wish I would have know when I ordered, but hind sight is 20/20 ya know.

A guy here in Utah buys megacabs, puts lifts, rims and tires on it, converts them to longbeds then resells them and makes a ton of money doing it.

One thing I will never figure out is why Dodge makes the Power Wagon in short only,thats the thing that stop me from getting one,I mean it's a work truck not a toy.

I searched till I found mine in long bed,short beds are just large trunks,I need the long bed for work.

Just my 2 cents anywho.

Ummm.. Not wishing to appear to stupid but what is the length of the bed in the long bed (I thought 8ft was a long bed).
