Anyone know if my 04 1k will fit in the back of a Chevy Colorado with the tailgate down?

I have haulde it in a short bed full size, but never in a S-10 size. I don't have the specs for the bed size in front of me but I know my bike is about 80''

Thnaks in advance guys

Chevy Colorado's bed is 6'1" long. The bed on my Avalanche is 5'3" and I have no problems putting it in the back. Back tire sits just past the crease in between the bed and tailgate , so I can't shut it. I'm not sure if you'll be able to close the tailgate, that isn't a bother for me.

Awesome, thanks man!

I am not worried about the gate being down...actually help fuel mileage.

Have to bring the bike back from PA and it is going up for sale :-(

when i had a truck i would ride with the tail gate down while on the highway just because of how much better the gas mileage was
