I know it's an odd request, but does anyone know the measurement from the floor of the bed to the top of the cab? I'm panning a 3000 mile road trip that will have a motorcycle in the bed and I'm trying to see how much it might might be caught in the wind. I have a few bikes and if I can select one that will be lower than the cab, I'm thinking there will be very minimal range impact.

It’s about 36”. I haven’t measured directly but the top of the spoiler to the top of the bed is about 18” and bed to bottom of the tonneau is 17”. Add in the width of the tonneau and the lip on the bed and you get just above 36”

Oh, wow, ok thanks. That's WAY less than I was anticipating.

For what it’s worth I wouldn’t worry about the efficiency hit from a bike or two mounted over the bed. Ive driven mine with a bike on the bed rack (fork mounted) and an awning and a road shower on the roof rack. I drove that way on a long road trip through Canada.

Well, it's more about this bike sticking over the top, which would be a good 16"-18" even with the suspension compressed some.
