Abstract: An expandable cargo bed system for a vehicle includes a front shell having a front shell first sidewall. The front shell first sidewall includes at least one cargo bed access passage extending between a first side of the front shell first sidewall and a second side of the front shell first sidewall opposite the first side. A rear shell is operably coupled to the front shell so as to be movable with respect to the front shell between a retracted position and an extended position so as to vary a length of the cargo bed. The rear shell has a rear shell first sidewall. The rear shell first sidewall is structured to cover the at least one cargo bed access passage when the rear shell is in the retracted position. The rear shell first sidewall is also structured so that the at least one cargo bed access passage is exposed when the rear shell is in the extended position.

Abstract: Methods and systems for attaching accessories to a vehicle. The system includes a first plurality of attachment devices located on a frame rail of a first vehicle, the first plurality of attachment devices spaced apart by a distance. The system also includes a second plurality of attachment devices located on a frame rail of a second vehicle, the second plurality of attachment devices spaced apart by the distance. The system also includes a plurality of engagement members of a vehicle accessory, each engagement member of the plurality of engagement members spaced apart by the distance and configured to engage with respective attachment devices from the first plurality of attachment devices or the second plurality of attachment devices. The system also includes a plurality of connectors configured to secure the plurality of engagement members to the first plurality of attachment devices or the second plurality of attachment devices.

Abstract: A pickup truck includes a cab having a rear wall and a rear window positioned in the rear wall. An airflow duct extends along a portion of the cab. The airflow duct has an inlet and an outlet and defines an airflow passage extending between the inlet and the outlet. The outlet is positioned rearwardly of the cab and within a space defined by a first horizontal plane extending through an edge of the rear window and a second horizontal plane spaced apart a predetermined distance from the first horizontal plane in a direction away from the rear window.

Abstract: A cargo bed system for a vehicle includes an inner shell and an outer shell operably coupled to the inner shell so as to be movable with respect to the inner shell between a lowered position and a raised position so as to vary a height of a cargo bed defined by the cargo bed system.
