How long is a Dodge 3500 long bed?
The long bed on a Dodge Ram 3500 is 8 feet long (96 inches). This long-bed configuration is designed to maximize cargo space and is offered alongside a shorter 6-foot-4-inch option, depending on year and cab configuration.
Bed length options
Most Ram 3500 pickups are sold with two bed lengths to suit different needs: a shorter bed for tighter spaces and a longer bed for maximum cargo capacity. The long-bed option is the 8-foot configuration.
- Short bed: 6 ft 4 in (76 inches)
- Long bed: 8 ft (96 inches)
Note that the exact exterior length can vary slightly by model year and cab style, but the long-bed configuration is typically 96 inches long in modern Ram 3500 trucks.
Cab configurations and verification
The availability of the 8-foot bed can depend on the cab configuration (for example, Regular Cab vs. Crew Cab) and the model year. If you need absolute precision for a specific vehicle, consult the official spec sheet from Ram or the dealer, or measure the bed with a tape measure from the inside edge of the bed rail to the far tailgate edge.
