This would have to be a HD truck with an 8ft bed and a crew cab. I don’t see anyone driving those things around for fun.

The lifted truck crowd is doing short beds.

i'm willing to bet lots of money this is actually just a box truck, look at the interior and roof line, it's just a box truck.

I’m not seeing that. Logo on the steering wheel seems likely to be a Ram. Though, I can’t entirely make it out.

you might be right about the steering wheel logo. Though i'm still willing to make that bet lol

It does seem that there are box trucks based on the Ram pickup chassis, but I don't think I've seen those in person. Most box trucks I see here in Canada are either based on a van chassis (usually Ford Econoline or Chevrolet Express/GMC Savana, but sometimes European-style vans like the Sprinter), the Ford F-650/750, or an actual truck chassis, like an Isuzu cabover or something from a company like Kenworth or International.
