Ran across this and had to laugh! I'm new to all this terminology but I'm assuming this should be Flareside?

I'm confused.

I thought Flaresides were bump, or step, sides. And.....what's the other bed type? Styleside?

That thing should be pretty solid coming from Montana.

Come on guys! It's really not that hard to understand.

Style Side = Ford Truck with straight (flat) sides (fender wells inside bed)
Flairside = Ford Truck with fenders on the outside of the bed

Fleetside = Chevy Truck with straight (flat) sides (fender wells inside bed)
Stepside = Chevy Truck with fenders on the outside of the bed
