long bed/short bed ??

redbaron · 10-21-2009, 04:33 PM

Hello again!
I was wondering about the bed length that are possible.
I thought if it is a ext cab, it could only have a short bed.
But now i saw some pics, where it looks like they have long beds....
Or only a visual illusion??
For example these, mostly the red one (1st)seems to be much longer than mine.(3rd)

its an optical delusion, they didn't make a long bed extended cab, can you imagine trying to park that thing

first pic is a artist rendition and subject to fitting the box
second is a short box
third is your truck

**deathphoenix99** · 10-21-2009, 04:53 PM

agreed with the above statement.

And parking extended cab long beds, look at the full-size trucks that have both.

I wouldn't go so far as to say that GM never made one, because don't forget, GM did build a factory first gen 4x4 crew cab with a six foot bed so.........
LOL
You never know!

redbaron · 10-21-2009, 05:03 PM

OK, then my first idea was right.
It was only because of these pic from the brochure with the red one.
This one looks different to mine, and i don´t know why.
Perhaps it is the black paint under the body modling.

jtcfanof3 · 10-21-2009, 05:15 PM

Longbed:

Now compare........
BTW, don't judge by your first picture, that is a rendering, so it's not to scale.

phantom_mia · 10-21-2009, 05:16 PM

yes my bad! im not worthy, the didn't "OFFER" a long bed extended cab

jtcfanof3 · 10-21-2009, 05:17 PM

LOL
It's OK, I've cought my foot in my mouth before because I said "never".

90blueS10 · 10-21-2009, 05:19 PM

Wasnt the crew cab a long bed? the gm one.

so i get away with "optical delusion" but not "didn't make" alright then

jtcfanof3 · 10-21-2009, 05:21 PM

I've always thought you were a little delusional, but I was being nice........

jtcfanof3 · 10-21-2009, 05:23 PM

Ya, now that I look at it, it was a long bed:

**deathphoenix99** · 10-21-2009, 05:24 PM

I want the above truck.

jtcfanof3 · 10-21-2009, 05:29 PM

LOL, ya good luck with that, the only ever produced 1st gen crewcab, I doubt he is going to let go of it easily......... I think he used to be on the forum, he has since repainted the truck and blah blah blah, if someone is curious about the truck, a search will yield several discussions about it.

90blueS10 · 10-21-2009, 05:30 PM

**** parking that thing

**deathphoenix99** · 10-21-2009, 05:30 PM

I know I can't have it, just something I want, like I want a LS9 in my truck. Never going to happen, but I want it.

I've driven a 96 F-350 crew cab with a long bed. If I can park that, I can park a minitruck. LOL

well if you can weld you can have a truck like that

jtcfanof3 · 10-21-2009, 05:35 PM

YA, at school we just put a 2.2 back into a 94 S10 after turning the crank and putting in new main bearings and rod bearings. I tried to talk my instructer into letting us put an LS9 into it instead........... didn't work..........

andrewmp6 · 10-27-2009, 05:38 AM

Those are short beds but there not as short as most newer trucks that's why they look longer.
