An adjustable cab extender assembly (200) adapted to couple to a vehicle (100) including a tractor (102) coupled to a trailer {104) is provided. The assembly includes a dynamic cab extender (206) adjustable in length and operable to be disposed in a gap (106) extending between the tractor and the trailer. The assembly includes a speed sensor (268) operable to sense a speed of the vehicle. The assembly also includes a control system (208) coupled in signal communication with the speed sensor and coupled to the dynamic cab extender. The control system is operable to automatically adjust a longitudinal length of the dynamic cab extender to selectively adjust a proximity of a trailing edge of the dynamic cab extender relative to a front end of the trailer when the sensed speed exceeds a selected speed. The control system may also place the dynamic cab extender in a stowed position.
