How long is the tray on a Ford Ranger?

The Ford Ranger offers two bed lengths, roughly 5 feet or 6 feet in length, depending on the model year and cab configuration. In metric terms, that’s about 60.8 inches (154 cm) or 72.8 inches (185 cm).


The exact tray length varies by configuration and market. While many recent Rangers are equipped with a shorter 5-foot bed, the longer 6-foot option has been available on certain trims and setups. To be sure, check the specific vehicle’s build sheet or dealer specifications for your exact truck.


Bed length options


The Ranger’s cargo bed length comes in two common sizes. The following list summarizes the two main options you may encounter.



  • 5-foot bed: about 60.8 inches (154 cm)

  • 6-foot bed: about 72.8 inches (185 cm)


Bed length choices influence cargo space, tailgate access, and accessory fitment. Confirm your exact configuration to ensure it meets your needs.


How to confirm the bed length on your Ranger


To verify the exact bed length for your specific Ranger, use these checks and measurements.



  1. Consult the vehicle’s window sticker or build sheet for the bed length specification.

  2. Check the owner's manual or Ford’s official model-year spec sheets for the cab and bed options.

  3. Ask the dealer or look up the exact trim and configuration on Ford’s official site or brochure for the year you’re considering.

  4. If needed, measure the bed yourself: measure the interior length from the front bed wall to the tailgate interior with the tailgate closed, or use a tape measure from the tailgate edge to the front wall for external approximation.


By following these steps, you can confirm the bed length of your specific Ranger and plan around cargo space and accessories accordingly.


Summary


The Ford Ranger typically comes with either a 5-foot or a 6-foot bed, depending on year and configuration. The shorter bed measures about 60.8 inches, while the longer bed measures about 72.8 inches. Always verify the exact length on your vehicle’s build sheet or with a dealer, as availability varies by trim and market.
