yes
you have to be 18or older and all the seats in the cab have to be taken up
There is no Illinois Law at this time which specifically prohibits passengers from riding in the cargo bed of a pickup. However, the seat belt laws do restrict who can ride in the bed. The Child Passenger Safety act requires that children under the age of 16 be fastened in a seat belt or child safety seat, so no one under 16 can ride in the pickup bed. In addition, if the driver of the pickup is under 18, all passengers under age 19 must be in approved seat belts, so unless the truck has factory mounted seats in the bed, no persons under 19 can ride there.Read more: Can_you_ride_in_back_of_truck_in_Illinois
called the bed
First, it is NEVER a good idea to have a person ride in any vehicle without being restrained (wearing seat belts) It IS legal for a person to ride in the cargo area of a pick up truck IF they are sitting on the cargo bed, not the sides or wheel humps AND the cargo gate (tailgate) is closed AND: -The person is 18 years old or over -The person is any age but the truck cannot be on a major highway at speed. -The person is any age but the cargo area is covered by a fitted and secured truck cap. Basically some one under 18 cannot ride in the bed on the interstate or major highway unless the truck has a truck cap.
if the rider is 18 or older
No, it is illegal to ride in the bed of a truck in Missouri, because riding on the exterior of the vehicle (which includes the bed of the truck) is illegal.
it depends on your age/

If you are talking about the pickup truck bed, you are allowed to ride it as long as you are 18 years old and above.

The state of Minnesota currently has no restrictions on riding in a truck bed. No one should ride in a truck bed without a proper restraining device to prevent falling out.
in WA it is illegal to ride in a truck bed at any age. You must have setbelts
It depends. It is true that passengers riding in a vehicle in the state of Tenn, must be wearing a seat belt, but Tennessee state law provides rules for riding in the bed of a truck. Persons under six years of age are not permitted to ride in the bed of a pickup on any road in Tennessee. Children between six and 11 years old may legally ride in the bed of the truck on city street and county highways. They may not ride in the truck bed on state highways or interstate highways. Persons aged 12 and up my be transported in a truck bed on all highways within the state of Tennessee. Counties and cities have the right to pass ordinances to prohibit transporting children in truck bed on their highways. This information is based on T.C.A. 55-8-189.

It is not recommended that anyone ride in the cargo area of any vehicle and in most states it is illegal. In places where there is no law against it, if anyone under 18 is riding in the back, the driver could easily be convicted of endangering a child.
There is no law currently prohibiting this activity, however that doesn't mean you should not protect your passengers. Use a device that eliminates the biggest risk associated with riding in a truck bed - ejection. The BedRyder is the only truck bed seating device that meets FMVSS standards.
It is incredibly illegal. So If you were dared, DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES DO THIS!!
It is technically illegal to drive with your tailgate down in Tennessee. This is considered to be an unsecured load, even if there is nothing in the bed of the truck. This is only considered a violation.
