Can someone take some measurements for me?
« on: September 18, 2009, 10:46:28 AM »
I'm looking for the distance between the top of the tailgate to the back seat (in the upright position obviously), the distance between the top of the side panels and the distance between the inside of the rear wheelhouses. I'd appreciate it!!

I can probably get it to you tomorrow. but if you are comparing to a Pickup, it is much longer.

I'd appreciate it. No, no comparsion to a truck. I just want to know those dimensions so I know what kind of space is back there. Doing some prelim work for a possible future sub box :)

All of these are internal dimensions.
Tailgate to back of seat = 70"
top of bed to floor in front of wheelwell 20.5"
top of bed to wheelwell = 8.5"
top of bed to floor behind wheelwell = 19.75"

Thanks Capt! I would presume that the horiz. distance between wheelwells and between the top of the side panels are the same as a pickup bed, eh?

Is that dimension of the tailgate to back seat correct at 70"? That's almost 6 feet. Oh, is that to the front seat or the rear seat? I was hoping for the rear seat to tailgate dimension.

Rear of the seat. It was in about the middle position.
All of them are vertical except for the tailgate which is horizontal, so you got me confused on the horizontal between wheelwell part...

Wow,I'm surprised that there's 70" between the rear of the back seat and the tailgate!

What I meant about the wheelwells is the width between them. Pickups have just enough room to fit a 48" wide sheet of wood. So I was wondering what the width is between the wheelwells and width between the tops of the side panels.

Oh, didn't get that info, but they are basically identical.
