Maybe. But I've never seen it referred to as CS.
If by the Ford website, you mean checking dealer inventory on
Ford Vehicles: Ford cars, trucks, SUVs, and crossovers then most dealer sites they link to will let you look at the window sticker. If you can look at the window sticker, check the wheelbase. 172" wheelbase is a crewcab pickup with a long bed. 176.2 is a CrewCab chassis cab with a 60" cab-to-axle. More than 176.2" wheelbase is definitely a chassis cab, but it might not be a CrewCab - even Regular cab chassis cabs can be ordered with wheelbase more than 200".
If it is a chassis cab, then it's a CrewCab without a bed/body yet. Ford makes those in both SRW and DRW, 4x4 and 4x2, even with Lariat trim. The wheelbase is 4" longer than a longbed pickup, so it's a real challenge to mount a pickup bed on one of those.
Estimate at least a coupla thousand bucks to add a simple flatbed, $5k to $6k for a fancy flatbed/stakebed with side tool boxes, headache rack, trailer hitch(es), etc. About $7k for a good service body. And it's easy to spend over $10k for a fancy tow body with all the toys. In most areas there will be at least one truck body vendor in the bigger towns. Look in the yellow pages under "truck bodies". One outfit in Kentucky will add a Dooley pickup bed for around $5k to $6k.
