RCSB is one I have been seeing also.

 

Thanks for helping a playing along.

NBS= New Body Style (Does not look like my truck in my signature) The new Silverado/Sierra

 

RCSB = Regular Cab with a short bed (5'8")

 

 

Here are some others:

 

CC = Crew Cab

EC = Extended Cab

Max = Vortec Max 6.0

RB = Regular Bed (6'5")

LB = Long Bed (8')

 

 

Glad to help a n00b, post with any other questions

I know NBS = New Body Style

 

But I also see some people use NNBS. What does the extra N stand for?

 

Basically saying the difference between my generation of truck (GMT-800) and the new 2007-2008 GMT-900 Trucks, the NNBS stands for New New Body Style.

 

This truck is what everybody considers NNBS:

while this could be considered NBS:

But the http://4x4ventures.com/carpics/silverado.JPG picture is referred to as the Classic if you are just using the NBS to address the GMT-900 platform

 

hope I didn't loose you

 

 

 

If I did, here is the best source to understand the difference between the platforms:

ACTUALLY a RCSB is a Regular Cab Short Bed truck with a 6.5 ft bed. :crackup: See mine below.

 

Also:

 

GMT800 = 99-07 style trucks

GMT900 = 07 up new body trucks

 

There are more.

 

Somebody else will have to explain WTF and WFO... Oh, and then there's Wingnut.

Goofed again, Zembonez is the master, here locally we do not have more than 7 regular cab short bed silverados or sierras so I dont see em as much, everybody wants an extended cab or a crew. That pic does look deceiving to me.

IMO it is a stupid acromym that means new new body style. If you want to do stuff like that wouldn't you have like 10 Ns before the BS? The 900 is the NBS the 800 is the OBS and the 400 is the 400. Sorry for the rant.

 

We could get rid of all of this by calling the platforms by their proper names guys. . .

yes but I know I am lazy, plus if you cannot make the distinction of what my truck is (signature) then its all good, someone else will always point out your hindsight - not addressed to you BJD3, but I understand your rant. GMT-800 (or GMT-880, I dont care)

Yeah MASTER of absolutely nothing! :crackup:

 

The bed does look short in my picture. I need to get a new pic posted with all of my mods. RCSB trucks are rare here too. I get a lot of looks since there aren't many GMT900 RCSB trucks... and the ones that are here don't have much done to them in the way of modifications.

Hey thanks for the help. I could not figure NBS for nothing. Now I know. :)
