Single cab size

I’m looking at an 03 ranger with a single cab truck appears to be in decent shape for an okay price in todays market. Only problem is I am 6’5 and wondering if I will even fit in the seat. Anyone of similar height been in a single cab before?

I'm 6'1" and find my 2004 regular cab a little tight to get into and out of. It's mainly getting my feet in through the narrow door. Once I'm in I'm comfortable but my seat is as far back as it will go. I have a few inches of headroom to spare.

I am 6'5", and regular cab was tight
Mostly it was the seat back angle when the seat is slid all the way back for leg room, the lower and thinner the top of the seat back the better, so it can lean back farther
Rangers have the headroom, which is why I liked them, but once I got an extended cab I don't think I could go back to regular cab

I am also 6'1" same layout as your truck and I would like to keep my seat all the way back against the rear window but I read that a common issue was that the back galss would pop out or break with wear over time with the seat against the glass. Any issues with that?

Haven't heard of that but if you push back hard enough on the glass edge or just below the glass on the metal of the cab you could bow it out enough to damage it

Tempered glass is very hard to break pushing on it's flat surface, the edges are its weakness

6'-3" here with a 94 single cab. It's a tight fit getting in and out. Just manageable sitting. Wishing for more room.

Yes, I wish someone do more to develop the Tardis effect, bigger on the inside than the outside, it is, after all 2022, I have seen enough APPS already, give me something I can use
They can even leave the time travel part out, but that would be cool too

As long as there are the steampunk controls of the Tardis in the 1996 movie. A recliner would be nice though. And a fridge.

I checked my back window and the seats aren't up against them. I scooted the seat forward a little just in case.
