06 dodge ram 2500 SB. Golf cart in bed

With a 6.5ft ford bed, ours has the wheels just onto the tailgate. You could probably do an extension with 3/4" plywood and make it work. Better to back it onto the truck as they tend to be heavier in the rear.

While payload may be a concern when you add in hitch weight, people and gear in the truck... golf carts are only around 500-600lb...no where close to 1500-2000lb.
