What we need is a new “Camper Special” like Ford used to build. The rear axle was moved closer to the rear bumper to improve its hauling characteristics. Unfortunately, none of the big campers being built today would fit in the bed, because they all tend to use most of the space behind the wheelwells and the tailgate opening of the current trucks. You wouldn’t be able to slide the camper all the way to the front of the bed.

Looks similar to the modern trucks but there’s a backseat where the front of the bed was. The axle to rear bumper doesn’t look much different.
It is. The 'Camper Special' was specially made with a setback rear axle. I'd kill for one today Shiny 390 with a 4 speed, 3 and a creep gear.
