No idea but don't try and park in a crowded tight parking lot, it's more of a 40 acre truck.

"Give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around
It's the easiest way that I've found ...
Some guys can turn it on a dime or turn it right downtown
But I need forty acres to turn this rig around."

I misread your post and thought you wanted box length. Had to go back outside and measure full length of truck.
Its 258.4 inches or 21.5ft.

Are you saying you are finally thinking of getting a new truck John? I liked that classic truck you had since it was new, even though it seemed to get stolen at least once a year.

I'm surprised at how "short" that is. My 2001 ram 2500 ext cab long box was 21' 8" nose to tail, bumpers included.

Its a crew long box. 2016
Ive been told the double long is 1 inch shorter so i might have misread what cab you wanted to know somehow. Mia Culpa.
Dang reading comprehension is getting bad sorry. This getting old (70) is something a guy has to get used to i guess.

Kinda of hard to drive it as it is missing the oil pan. Lent it to a guy so he can boil his moose horns ! May be he will drop it off on saturday at the old house if he is not ice fishing.
