You can measure your truck bed for a cover using a tape measure. This will help you find the right truck bed cover for your
Ford F-150
.
Measure from the bulkhead’s start to the tailgate’s inside edge to find out the size of your truck bed. Then, purchase a cover that corresponds to this length.
The three standard truck bed sizes are:
  • 5.6 feet long
  • 6.5 feet long
  • 6 feet long
If you know what model truck you have, you can also find out how long your truck bed is through your owner’s manual or by researching the model.
