measure the bed, 78" short bed, 90" long bed, also comes in a 9' bed. It looks like a short bed.

Usually the long beds don't have the cutout for spare tire.

Easiest way to tell a long bed from a short bed is to count the stake pockets. Long beds have 2 infront of the fender and short beds only have 1.
