This isn't just a problem with RV users. I'm an electrical contractor and use trucks with various tool bins and compartments added to the bed. The extra height makes it harder to access the upper shelves and see what's in the bins. Also, some days I might climb in and out of the bed of a truck 25 times loading and unloading tools and materials. I also wish that trucks weren't so high. Yesterday I parked my '05 Chevy dually beside a very new looking Ford F150. The hood of the Ford was at least a foot taller than mine.
I use a commercial fiberglass cap(Spacekap) on my 2013 Chevy, it loads and unloads just like a truck camper. I have to put blocks under the jack stands to get it up high enough to load and unload. My bed rails are 58" off the ground at the rear tire when unloaded.
