we long-legged friends have of course tried it out. unfortunately we get our heads stuck between the wall and the wheelhouse. we can't really move our legs and are lame the next morning. that's fine for a drunken night, but not for a fulfilling and relaxing camping holiday.
As a long legged person, there is no way I'd try to sleep like that in my short bed. However I often wake up like this in my bed at home. A 6ft bed would help with this whole camping thing, a shame they don't make one for the new gen.

Get one of the old IBC tote liners people give away on Craigslist. Cut a corner off it at an angle for rain runoff. Protection for 2 and hollow so it won't take up room when traveling .

as a supercab owner with 6.3ft in total, i can tell u. the 6ft bed doesn‘t make it any better … ?
and, of course, there is a supercab for the rest of the world. u should have a serious talk to ford america in that case!

I ended up getting this- the topperez thing looks pretty good but pricey. This one was a little over $200, not so bad. After reading the reviews I got the full size one - it’s a little poochy on the sides but there’s enough room for the hatch to stay open. Overall it’s easy to set up, comes in a small bag, and since most of my truck camping will likely be in the Sierras in the summer, it should be fine.
