My '11 Silverado sales brochure says that the regular cab comes in 143.5 and157.5" WB for short and long box.
Next up is the Extended Cab where the rear door opens like a suicide door back in the '30's with a 143.5 or 157.5" wheelbase.
The last size offering is theCrew Cab with 4 regular opening doors which is only offered with a short box on a 143.5. Why? "Dunno".
Guessing the CC is on a Tahoe WB and the other two in long box versions would be on the Surburban wheel base of 157.5".
I had the Dodge Extended Cab with the short rear door opening in conventional fashion (Quad door or something like that) and it was a short door like on the GM Extended Cab. To get the big door you had to go to the Crew Cab which had a very large door, probably wider than GM. You can get those dimension off the Ram www I'm sure.
The Silverado opening is wider than my Ram Quad door I think they called it but the seat was pretty well out of the way when up even though you couldn't sit very long on a straight back seat. The Silverado fixed their seat with a sloping back which is much more comfortable but when up does consume more of the door opening.
The other thing I noticed in shopping the models back then was that the Ram has below the floor storage in the rear seating area. In the Silverado there is no such convenience and the tool box sits out in plain view. I perfer the Ram on that.
On changing badges, no problem with the Rams just that the nearest dealer was Chebby, family owned for 45 years, and all the TLC that goes with that to compete with the big city 25 miles away. Both had reasonable prices.

Today's Featured Article - Upgrading an Oliver Super 55 Electrical System - by Dennis Hawkins. My old Oliver Super 55 has been just sitting and rusting for several years now. I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
