'96 and older Ford Escorts might be OK for 6' 5", not so much '97 and newer which have a lower roof line.

Have you considered a utility trailer? I bought a 4'x8' open flatbed 1500lbs gross trailer weight for just under $300. Closed the bed with a single sheet of 5/8" treated plywood ~$35. Trailer hitch and wiring kit totaled about $180.
