What size bed do I have?

I feel stupid for asking this, but is there anyway to know which size bed I have without taking a tape measure to it? I've got a 2006 XLT supercab with a 145" wheelbase. I thought it was a 6.5' bed, but after talking to a vendor (buying new step bars) he is making me doubt that. He may be an idiot, but it was enough to make me second guess myself. Anyone confirm that a 2006 supercab with the 145" wheelbase = 6.5' bed?

I would just measure but I walked to work today....

Thanks!

Not true as Patman has proven. The SCREWS can also be 6.5
