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.

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

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.
