Why is the bed so tall in the new Fords? The same reason why the beds got taller on the GM and Ram trucks when they went with fully boxed frames in the rear. The benefit of C channel frames of the older body styles where lower bed heights.
I know what you are saying SHinerBock but if they are tying to save weight the manufactures are doing a piss poor job. Look at the weight of a lets say 06 Duramax (my truck)and the weight of a 18 Duramax.
I just got home from working on a 66 Burb. I thing it weights 4,600 LBS. What does a newer 3/4 Burb weigh?
The new vehicles are PIGS and are getting more piggy every year!
