Perhaps I'm simply looking in the wrong place, but I haven't been able to locate the dimensions of the rear seat storage area. I always keep a fishing rod on the back of my truck in case I want to get out after work. I'd like to keep a rod in the storage space and need to know the width for the length of rod. Would anyone happen to know it?

I think I saw somewhere that it was pretty much right at 72".

I'm in a similar situation, where I'd like to know if my dog kennel will fit on the back seat between the front seat back and the rear seatback. Anyone want to take some measurements? That's probably going to be the deciding factor for me whether I need a cap or can get away with a tonneau cover.

Are you looking for the under-seat storage or behind the seat storage? One thing I noticed when I saw one recently at our state fair - the Hybrid's under seat storage doesn't really go all the way across. The 12v battery compartment comes all the way to the top of the storage bin area. In the 2.0, there is room to store long narrow items because the center bin divider is not full height.

Shucks. I was thinking under seat, and was hoping there were would be enough gap between the seat in the down position to fit a 2 piece rod without screwing up the guides, but if its pretty flush Ill have to consider behind the seat.

There *might* be enough of a gap for you. I know for sure that my folding sports chairs are too big in diameter to fit. I couldn't get the right angle to see if the seat bottom actually rests on the storage bin or not.

I am also interested in this. I have a small black lab who's medium-large kennel fits in the back seat of my 08 silverado crew. I didn't think about this until after ordering mine.
