Other than the difference in bed length, my 2020 Ranger is not much different in size from the 97 F150 extended cab I had before. The 97 F150 was a long bed (7ft) with full rear bench seat.

But the width is what I notice is less and makes a noticeable difference in tight spots.

I agree with all the comments on the size. The Ranger does not need to get any bigger. It's already as big as a two generation old F150. If you need a 6.5 foot bed buy an F150 and deal with parking it. Leave my Ranger alone.
Funny you mentioned that. A guy I work with has an older Gen F150. I parked next to him and snapped these photos. Looks like our Rangers are slightly larger than this generation of F150’s!

They even look a little similar.
