    I'll be taking possession of my new toy in a few short hours and I'm trying to get my garage in order. I have a couple of Trek bikes I'm going to have stored suspended from the ceiling, over my Tacoma's bed cover. I'm just trying to verify clearance. Does someone know the approximate bed rail height from the ground for a standard, non-lifted 2017 4x4 Tacoma?

    Thanks in advance.

    A back step for when I get older, Carhartt seatcovers, 4Runner wheels, Topper, and "tats all folks"! --for now!!
    You may want to specify where on the truck you want it measured and also make sure the model with tires is the same as you are getting!
    Better yet why don't you take an excursion to your dealer and measure it yourself --that way you know what the exact measurements are!!??

    Well, I mentioned my model, but it never occurred to me to mention that it was a TRD Sport with 17" wheels. I did mention where on the truck I wanted it measured though. I wanted to know the height of the top of the bed rail from the ground. Still, it would be kind of hard to give that without knowing wheel size. Anyway, I have my Tacoma now and the bed with the hard tri-fold tonneau cover is 51.5" from the ground, giving me 1.5" of clearance, in case anyone else is looking for similar information for this model/trim level/wheel size.

    Thanks anyway.
