    And even for construction purposes, most trucks nowadays are kinda pointless. A 4ft bed is good for hauling like 1 bike placed diagonally, much less a typical sized piece of lumber or plywood.

    Can’t beg a place to sell you a 6ft bed unless you want to wait for it to come off the manufacturing line.

      Don’t forget you have to lift that bike like 4ft to get to the tailgate on newer trucks! Can’t imagine trying to load a four wheeler on a newer truck without like folding ramps at least 2x the length of the bed so it’s not a vertical fucking climb.

      Funny thing, you can put that bike into a BMW 3 Series no problems.
