Usually if you're hauling anything significant the bed isn't even used. You use a trailer.

The beds are usually smaller than the cabs. It's kinda silly

Eh... I've owned multiple trucks and used them to carry a shit load of stuff including 16' lumber, I only got a trailer when I switched to a car.

You really shouldnt haul stuff that long, even if you have a 8 foot bed.
