When talking about pickup truck cab styles, it can be confusing to know what is what. All of the vehicle manufacturers use their own terms to describe
their cab styles. For example, Chevy uses "Extended Cab," Dodge uses "Club Cab," and Ford uses "SuperCab" when referring to
the same type of cab. The following information should help clear up the confusion.
Not all model years for each manufacturer are included below. Manufacturers occasionally change the design of a particular
model - for example, door handle placement may vary. Your particular vehicle may not match the pictured vehicle exactly.
Four Basic Styles of Pickup Truck Cabs
No matter how many names they go by, truck cab styles come in just 4 basic types.
Standard or Regular Cab
Generally, no extra length added to the cab
Generally, no extra windows in the cab beyond the windshield and door windows
Extended Cab
Extended cab provides additional interior storage behind the front seats.
Small windows are located behind the door windows on each side.
Bench or jump seats may be present behind the front seats to provide seating for additional passengers.
Some models have a door behind the front door for easy access to the storage area. If this door opens from the front, it may be called a
suicide door. This door may look like a regular, full-size door, just more narrow. It may have a handle on the outside at the front or back, or the
handle may be hidden inside the door accessible only when the front door is open.
Full 4-Door Cab with Backseat
Cab has 2 doors per side, like a 4-door car
Full backseats provide the comfort of a full-size car, unlike jump seats
Full-size rear doors allow easy access for passengers
Full-size windows in the rear doors
Full 4-Door Cab with Backseat and Extra Storage Space
