Most trucks, unless specifically single cab or long beds have not been able to carry a 4’x8’ sheet of plywood in a decade or longer. A single cab or long bed pick em up truck is as rare as hens teeth. Otherwise they’re just pavement princesses who dont haul anything heavier than a gallon of milk or their own sedentary ass. Its all about percieved machismo. And that shit sells trucks to fragile men 8 days a week.
Some of the most deranged drivers, imo, unless they are contractors and then maybe not but usually still. Any time I see these kinds of trucks in the city I usually prepare myself for the worst.
Being able to haul 4x8 sheet goods is the measure of a truck for me. And most of them just can’t. You know what can? A mid 2010s Honda Odyssey minivan. Fold the back seats down, pull the center row, and load it up. Seats 7 OR hauls drywall? Winner winner, chicken dinner. Not man enough, though, I guess

(Contractors are deranged, i watched a coked out contractor have to be restrained from assaulting someone because of a parking spot dispute at 7am)
