Rear size question on 4 door - with seats folded down - and headrests tipped back < 6 feet

[Broncolli]

Hi everyone,

I did not notice this before - until @Toccoa put up a picture today for another reference. The picture is below.

Here is my issue, regarding the 4 door - what is the length of the cargo compartment when the seats are folded down like in the picture below?
What is the distance between the flipped back headrest to the tailgate? I regularly carry a long farmers market tent and need to make sure it will fit straight from the tailgate to the flipped back headrest. I was thinking at the worst case I can move the passenger seat forward and have more room - but it appears by this photo I am still limited with the headrest being flipped back. I recall seeing the distance from the tailgate to the back of the front seat was 6 feet. Does this mean it is 6 feet minus the seat bottom and minus the headrest?

(I know this is a 2 door - but using the picture as a reference, I imagine the seats fold the same way and rob a similar amount of space.)

You can remove the headrests for those few inches more. Yes, then you can move the seat forward for more room.

I've read it's approx six and a half feet from inside of tailgate to front seatbacks.

On the 4 door the headrests flip forward and tuck between the seats. (They’re present in the picture above, just not visible)

We don’t have the exact measurements on the 4-door (like we have of the 2-door thanks to the incredible @Torgsurv )…

but we do have roughly this. Roughly 78x43

Plus more discussion and measurement pictures where that came from:

Not a precise measurement, but I’m 6’ tall and felt pretty comfy back there. The driver seat was pretty far back too. I likely could have adjusted stuff more to stretch out more completely, but I accomplished what I set out to in this busy setting by determining that I’d be able to sleep comfortably in the back of a 4 door. I look forward to seeing exactly how fetal I’ll need to go in order to sleep in my 2 door lol (If I can manage in a Challenger I’m sure I’ll be ok in any Bronco and also I own a tent).

I'm sure products like the ones below will be made shortly to exactly fit the cargo area of the Bronco. A JKU will sleep a 6' person just fine, without looking it up the Bronco is a few inches longer I do believe.
