Correct. However you are not going to see a fundamental change in how vehicles are designed any time soon.
It already happen.
If you take a look at new Superduty, the rear axle is at about 70% of the bed, when on older SD it was at 50%.
Not sure what year the difference happen, but till early 2000' it took F550 to have rear axle at the rear.
That makes for longer wheelbase, but with coil springs, front wheels turn more, so the trucks are manageable at liquor story ;)
My 172" base 2007 SD makes about the same turning radius, what my 2000 14x' F250 (short bed supercab) did.
