I " think " the extended cab short bed is the same as a long bed regular cab.

That is just what I think! I have never measured on.

To my knolage a regular bed and a short bed are ( same same )

only differance in the older trucks is regular/ short bed and long bed.

I think in 97 or 96 the made an extra short bed on the crew cab 250's. That to is an I THINK!

Anybody else confused?

I know for sure that the wheelbases are different between a regular cab longbed and a supercab shortbed. There's about 6" of difference between the two, the supercab is longer.

So a regular cab longbed would be about 16" longer than my truck, which is a supercab shortbed.

I'll check it when I go out tonight, and add 16" to it.

To me, regular means long. In any case, my supercab longbed has a 155" wheelbase and is within a couple of inches of 20 feet, bumper to bumper.
