Way too far from Austin to be any use for you. But just FYI, in case you haven't heard. Factory Five is working on a new version of the truck with the cab extended 4 inches. Addresses the number one complaint about the truck, e.g. very limited legroom. The bed remains the same. So the wheelbase is 4 inches longer. They showed the prototype frame at the open house in June. No official timeline has been announced. But I have it on good authority that with the current leadtime for kits (8 months at least) the new version will be the only one selling by the time you could get one. Something to keep in mind as your considering a purchase and get the chance to look at the current version.

My truck build is wrapping up (build thread linked in my sig line below) and while I fit "OK" (I'm 5'-9") it's a little tight. We'll work with it. But that new version would be nice. Other than that, a very cool build.
