hey, im looking to upgrade to a bigger truck, i want to keep the same year, i currently have a 1989 f-150, and i want a full bed 4dr, i see them running around every once in a while, but i never get close enough to see what style they are, ive been looking around and noticed that the newer 4 door f-series are called "SuperCrew", i was wondering if anyone knows if they had a different style-name back in the 80's...
thanks, zach
A friend of mine has one and he calls it a crew cab. Don't know if this is the actually name or not but for most part I think you will find most poeple calling them supercrew now just because of the newer trucks. Of course if you run into an old timer I'm sure he will set you straight.
I did a quick search on them and it looks like they are called "Crew Cabs" and are 250s and 350s. Could be wrong though.

Reason: new info
As far as I know, crew cabs (two full sets of doors on each side) were very very rare in our generation. I believe they were only for the F-350s with 460s or diesels. I mostly see them at track events or shows.
They also have the Centurion Bronco that is basically a bronco stretched to 4 full doors instead of 2, but thats aftermarket not Ford's doing.
I like my supercab, but wish it had those 1/2 doors. I might look into making them doors
This is interesting. In Oklahoma and Texas you almost can't go around the block without seeing a Crew Cab truck - they've been around for a lot of years in F250 and F350-series trucks. "Super Crew" refers only to the F150 versions with the tiny beds, which have only been available in the last two generations of Ford trucks.
