Okay, possibly crazy idea. And probably uncomfortable as all hell, assuming you're over 5'6. I'm sure other folks have thought of it but the diagonal length of the bed, back to opposite front corner is approximately 72". I need to come up with plans, and some digital mockups but you could build a triangular sleeping platform in the back and if you're not tall, hopefully fit and sleep without putting the tailgate down. The shape would probably be akin to a baseball diamond, and you could have the storage drawers run perpendicular to the bed on one side, with additional cubbies or drawers underneath but they'd be much shorter and have to have a diagonal entrance. And of course, this is predicated upon the existence of a hardtop being available, or ideally one taller than the Ford OEM one that's available. I managed to take a LiDAR scan of my bed, but I don't have access to any CAD packages since Autodesk changed the licensing for Fusion 360.
So y'all are going to have to contend with this awful sketch, but I hope that communicates the idea. You still retain access to the power inverter, or the cubbies depending on how you'd build it. But the end of the platform would have to be right up against the tailgate. It'd still be really tight for a lot of people though.
