I had a quad cab rental for 2 weeks and hated it. In my crew cab I have to move the seat up 3" to fit a car seat in it, with the quad cab there was about 5" between the front of the front seat and the dash, so I couldn't imagine having kids and having a quad cab. If you don't ever haul people and/or don't have kids the quad cab will work fine though.
Well that's because it is...Unless you have a 5' tall person in front you you'll be crammed. I had a 2011 QC for 4 years, my best buddy has one now too. Whenever I sit in the back of his truck I'm cramped up and my knees touch the back of his seats. I'm only 5'10. I said after that truck I'd never have a QC again. They work well if you don't care to haul a truck full of people around. I bought a crew cab because IMO they look better, heated rear seats, under floor coolers, wicked leg room, and I don't think QC is even an option on the upper 2 trims.
That was also back when a truck cost $15000 fully loaded and you could get a family sedan for $15000 and afford to keep both. Now the average cost of a truck is above $30000 so people have to use them to do everything.
Maybe he doesn't want a 5ft suitcase for a bed. Maybe he is buying it for a truck and not a suv. And before anyone says you can get a cc with a 6ft bed, maybe he doesn't want it that long. Not everybody buys a truck for a family vehicle. My lab rides fine in the back and so do my tools. Imo which don't mean nothing ,the cc with the 5ft bed looks silly. Throw a hard cover on it and it really looks silly. I like to call them a Ford explorer sport track on steroids.LOL
