Custom Camper vs Longhorn - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I want to make sure I know what I'm talking about, because I'm not sure that I do :-)

What should a 133" GMC (Longhorn) be called? They were all Custom Campers, but the Custom Camper nameplate was available seperately on 127" trucks as well.

On Chevrolet it's easy, they called them a Longhorn.

What's the right way to look at a GMC "Longhorn"? How do you differentiate a 133" GMC Custom Camper from a 127" GMC w/ Custom Camper nameplate?

Or put another way, other than the wheelbase, what on the SPID makes a GMC a "Longhorn" (but not called that)?
