My buddy is a general contractor and actually does need a truck for his job. Ironically he has a really hard time finding one with a large enough bed for what he needs anymore. Most of the trucks being built now are designed with hauling groceries home from the Costco in mind, not hauling lumber and sheets of drywall.
My brother is in the market for a truck. He wants it to actually put things in the back of it, specifically a motorcycle.
I know that there are trucks out there that have beds big enough, there has to be, but holy moly it's like every truck bed is made for 3 grocery bags and a 6 pack. I can haul more in the back of my GTI then some of these trucks out here. When the hell did they turn so useless??
If I have to hook up a trailer to carry most things what's the point of a truck
Last year I bought a truck with an 8ft bed. Its very unusual to see a single cab long bed truck that's as new as mine (2012) without it being someone's fleet truck, in fact, it's the only one I've seen for sale locally. The next cheapest truck was twice the price, had twice the miles, but it also had a 4 door cab and a little 5 foot bed. It's apparently what most people want.
I don't get short bed trucks at all. If you can't lay down in it it's not a bed. You're better off with a station wagon in 95% of situations.
Or a minivan. You can load a lot into a Dodge caravan that has the seats removed or folded up.
