How wide is the bed opening?

[Rothgarr]

Does anyone know if the width of the bed opening was published anywhere, either officially or if someone at the event measured it?

I'm just curious if my lawn tractor would fit in the back. It has a 48" wide deck, so I guess so long as it's wider than that...

Also curious the weight limit on the built-in ramp. The lawn tractor weights 512 lbs (plus my 190 lbs.)

Hopefully it is 48"wide. That is the gold standard for pickup truck beds so they can fit 4' x 8' sheets of plywood in the bed.

The length is 6.5 feet, so if the tailgate can open and stay in the horizontal position it should carry a sheet of plywood just fine....if it is 48" wide.

Posted in another thread that the bed is 5.1 feet wide.
