Bed Data & Measurements Request


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi guys.

 

I’ve been a member here for a bit, just casually browsing around and posting from time to time, but now I’m working on a project and need some input.

 

We’re developing a new universal truck bed canopy system, to be seen in time to come, and as part of the R&D, we need some general bed measurements. I was planning to just go out and peruse dealer lots with a tape measure and notebook, but haven’t fit the exploration it in my schedule yet, so thought I’d post something where real owners could help.

 

The data I need is as follows:

1) Year, make & model of truck

2) Cab & bed size combination

3) Front bed top outside width

4) Rear bed top outside width

5) Top outside side length

6) Bed top side ledge width

7) Bed top side hole spacing from front, and size of the square holes

8) Bed top side hole spacing from rear, and size of the square holes

a. Also, note, if there is third middle hole or not, on each side

9) Bed inside depth, from floor to top edge

10) Front bed top edge to top of cab roof height

 

**Both current new models and the previous gen models would be GREAT, if possible, as pertains to this list:

 

'94-'03 S-10/Sonoma

’04-current Colorado/Canyon

 

So if a few people here with the various bed sizes would be SO kind and oblige as to go out with a tape measure for 5 minutes and take some notes, that would be FANTASTIC. Still am planning to do more first handle examination of the beds, but this would be a really terrific jump start on my data collection.

Well, someone linked me to the GM Upfitter catalogs, and that takes care of most of my questions.

 

So, consider this closed, already, unless there's something specific I can't find in the catalog or have an opinion question.

    • You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built. 
    • Diesel hit $6.00 here today at the truck stop.   Payed $2.79 for E85 today too.
    • Thanks for posting, I'm sure it will help someone
    • New to diesel trucks. I happened to find my oil cooler leaking oil externally with only 4,000 miles on the truck. I didn’t realize this was an issue until I started researching it. Dealer is going to replace it under warranty but I’m wondering if there’s anything GM is working on to fix this issue. I’ve heard the oil filter used is the same as they use on their V6 motors and that’s what is causing the problems. Should I switch to a bigger filter or keep using the OEM recommended? 
    • So, GMCustomerService:  Judging by the Update History pictured above, is this truck missing any updates that it actually needs. If it's just for the infotainment system, the radio is working fine and no trouble with SeriusXM. and Android Auto is working fine wirelessly with my phone. Some months ago, an update notice was sent to my truck. I approved the update and it finished saying that the update was successful, but it seems that whatever that update was, it didn't actually get installed - at least not if I'm to go by the Update History shown above.   So, again, are there any updates that this truck really should have? I've checked with my dealer but they're reluctant or commit to anything and if I want them to check, they require a $200.00 fee just to check it out and then I'd have to pay for the actual update(s).    Ignorance is bliss, and if none of the updates goes to fixing any mechanical discrepancies, I'll just leave things as is.
