How long is a Chevy Silverado regular cab long bed?

The regular cab long bed is eight feet long, or 96 inches, in Silverado configurations that offer the "Regular Cab Long Box" option.


In Chevrolet's Silverado lineup, "regular cab" refers to the two-door cabin, while "long bed" (or "long box") denotes the eight-foot cargo area. Availability varies by model year and trim level, but when you see a Regular Cab Long Box, the bed length is 8 feet.


Understanding the configuration


“Regular cab” describes the two-door, basic passenger cab. “Long bed” (also called a long box) refers to the cargo area behind the cab that measures about eight feet in length. This combination is designed to maximize cargo space for work use, and it has historically been offered on certain Silverado trims and years. Exact availability can vary with generation and market.


Bed length specifics


The bed length for the Regular Cab Long Box is 8 feet (96 inches). The bed length is measured from the inside edge of the tailgate to the inside edge near the cab. Note that the overall length of the truck will be longer due to the cab and front end, and that the Regular Cab Long Box configuration is not always offered in every model year or trim.


How to verify for a specific year


To confirm the exact bed length for a given model year and trim, use these sources:



  • Chevrolet’s official website configurator or model brochure for that year, which lists cab/box combinations and bed lengths.

  • The Monroney (window) sticker or the dealer’s build sheet for the specific vehicle.

  • Model-specific spec sheets published by GM or authorized dealers.


In practice, if you see “Regular Cab Long Box” listed for a Silverado, you are looking at an eight-foot bed configuration.


Summary


The Silverado Regular Cab Long Box uses an 8-foot bed (96 inches). Always verify the exact bed length for your particular model year and trim through official Chevrolet sources or the dealership, as availability can vary by year and configuration.
