Hi & Welcome!
These are some tall trucks. I'm 5'10" and can't reach the center of the windshield nor close the hood by grapping it in the middle! For the first couple of months, I had no step rails and it was terrible. Being hobbled from back surgery made it even worse! As you noted, it sure is nice to crawl under and have plenty of room.
BTW, how did you like the truck?
