Default What size bed do i have ?

Im confused, i measured my bed because i had it next to a standard cab 6.5ft bed and mine's longer by a half a foot, so what do i have a 7ft bed or what ?

There are only 2 sizes. They are sometimes referred to as the 6' and the 8' beds, but those measurements aren't exact. Yours would be an 8' bed.

The industry standard for long beds is to be able to fit a 4x8 sheet of plywood in a long bed with the tailgate closed, or at least thats what I have heard. The plywood just fits in our trucks.

Long bed.

The choices were a 6.5 ft (or 6.4 ft depending on whom you ask) bed or a 8 ft bed. I have the 6.5, and yours is definitely longer than mine.

I have a queen. It fits me, the dog, and sometimes a sexy lady friend depending on her size.
