Solving the trig problem on my 24" deep bed with the cab top sitting another 24" above the bed rail, I came up with a 11 degree slope that stayed 8" above the tail gate.
My old bed cover was too steep (17 degrees) hitting right at the top of the tailgate, but it sure beat a flat tonneau.
If the bed were 8" deeper, a straight angled cover would have been just right.
