    To make matters worse; lots of the trucks listed that I see on the roads have aftermarket larger “off road” tires and lift kits, making them a good 12+ inches taller than stock.

    And of course, I see them hauling stuff in the bed or on a trailer about 20% of the time at most. But gawd damnit, they’re exercising their rahhts!!

      12 inches for the last one is an extra 6.5 ish feet.

      Edit: 10.43/1.60 times 12 inches is my calculation.

      I saw a truck the other day hauling some downspouts in its bed. Except the bed was so short the spouts were sticking out about 3’ over the side of the truck.
