How long is a crew cab RAM 1500?

The length of a RAM 1500 Crew Cab depends primarily on bed length. In recent models, a Crew Cab with the short 5 ft 7 in bed is roughly 233 inches long, while a Crew Cab with the 6 ft 4 in bed is about 242 inches long. Exact figures can vary slightly by year, trim, and drivetrain.


Bed-length options and overall length


Two common configurations determine the vehicle’s overall footprint on the road. The following outlines typical measurements for recent RAM 1500 Crew Cab models.



  • Short bed (5 ft 7 in) with Crew Cab: about 233 inches overall length (roughly 19 ft 5 in)

  • Long bed (6 ft 4 in) with Crew Cab: about 242 inches overall length (roughly 20 ft 2 in)


These figures are approximate and can vary slightly by model year, trim level, bumper design, and optional equipment. For precise measurements, refer to the specific vehicle’s spec sheet or window sticker.


Other factors that influence the footprint


While bed length is the primary driver of overall length, other design choices can cause small variations. The RAM 1500’s geometry also depends on factors such as trim packages and drivetrain, which can affect bumper shapes and overhangs by a fraction of an inch.



  • Model-year changes: The fifth-generation RAM 1500 (2019–present) has remained largely consistent in overall footprint, with minor adjustments possible from facelifts or packages.

  • Drivetrain and trim: 4x4 versus 4x2 and certain bumper or accessory options may tweak length by small amounts.


When accuracy matters—such as garage clearance or shipping—check the exact specifications for the particular configuration you’re considering.


Summary


A RAM 1500 Crew Cab’s length is determined mainly by bed size: about 233 inches with the 5 ft 7 in bed and about 242 inches with the 6 ft 4 in bed, for recent models. Always verify the exact measurements for the specific configuration you’re evaluating, as minor year-to-year differences can occur.
