What Type of Pickup Truck Cab Should I Get?

Shopping for a vehicle can sometimes present itself with varying degrees of difficulty. This is especially true when it comes to finding the perfect pickup truck. With so many cab styles to choose from, it might seem like an arduous task to pick the one that works best for you and what you plan on using your truck for. Fear not; we have you covered on this and will break down each different cab in order to help you make an informed decision. The first thing that you need to know is that truck cabs come in three distinctive sizes; regular, extended, and crew. With that out of the way, let us begin.

Regular Cab

The regular cab is the most common type. This design consists of a two-door setup and can usually seat two to three individuals. While they tend to be limited in some capacities, they tend to lead the class in towing capability because of their lighter weight. Some of the older model Ford Rangers and Toyota Tacomas had this style through much of the 1990s, when many were redesigned. They also tend to get better fuel economy and are on the low end of the spectrum in terms of price and affordability.

Extended Cab

Depending upon what brand you prefer, these come under a variety of different names. While some come in four-door options, a great many come in two-door configurations and can seat up to four people. Extended cabs work best for drivers who are looking to maximize their payload capacity, as they offer the most storage space. They’re also very adept at lengthy road trips that cross state lines.

Crew Cab

The most common truck that utilizes the crew cab is GMC’s Denali trim line. Crew cab trucks are extremely versatile and have four doors and seating for up to six. The additional room makes it more comfortable than the extended cab and is recommended for drivers who have both cargo and passengers to transport on a regular basis. If you’re looking to maximize comfort and luxury, then a crew cab is the way to go.
