Truck makers love to give the same idea a different name. A cab with full front doors and smaller rear doors is an Extended Cab in plain language, but it's a Double Cab at Chevy, GMC and Toyota (on the Tundra), a SuperCab at Ford, a Quad Cab at Ram, a King Cab at Nissan, and an Access Cab or XtraCab at Toyota (on the Tacoma).
To make things worse, the names shift from one generation to the next. Chevy's "Double Cab" used to be called the "Extended Cab," and the bed Chevy calls "Standard" today was the "Short" bed a decade ago.

Yes, Toyota's "Double Cab" is an extended cab on the Tundra but a full crew cab on the Tacoma. That's exactly why we print the universal term next to the brand's term on every table.
