I'm looking at getting a new Frontier and debating King vs Crew
cab. I'd prefer the Crew, but I am going to need to haul an 4x4
ATV (also not purchased yet). Anyone have any luck getting an ATV
in the back of a Crew cab with the shortened box? Looking at the
length dimensions, it looks like its right on the hairy edge.
Any problems with the same on a King? Thanks in advance for your
insight.

I have a 2002 Honda Rancher and it fits in the back of my CC. The back tires are on the tailgate but they would be it you had a 6ft bed and a tool box. If you were really concened you could buy a bed extender.

IIRC the 07s CC will come with a long box. it's one of the reasons I bought an 06 as my garage is a tight fit for the CC. This may help you so check with a dealer.

Leave the tailgate down and use tiedowns. if its any bigger than that put a tag on it and drive it.

Hugh B is right the 07 comes with the option of a long bed....but the king cab already has a longer bed then the crew cab no matter what year (if your talking about the new 05-07 models.) i agreew the crew as well...well good luck!

I have a 06' Crew Cab NISMO and I put my Brute Force 750 in the back. I also have a LA Guard dog. It is a deal that attaches to your receiver hitch and then comes up and hooks onto the ball of your atv. It is awesome for securing atv's. I trust it alot more than straps, plus it takes the weight off of your tailgate. Check em out at laguarddog.com. They are well worth it. You can also still attach a trailer to it to tow.

Ok, after reading this and thinking about it for a while, has anyone busted their tailgate cables b/c of their atv's being put on there for an extended period of time?

That is why I use the LA Guard Dog, it takes the weight off of the tailgate. I can lift the rearend of my ATV up the lock it so it supports all the weight.
