My trucks are Dodge Dakotas and they are the same size as the full size trucks were in the 60's-70's. Only problem is they forgot to put a 8' bed on them, the Dakota up to 96 did carry a 8' bed. Now the 2000 extended cab that I did have before got it totalled by a stop sign runner and the 2001 regular cab that I have now both in the 2 wheel drive modeld I can reach in the bed. Not in the 2003 quad cab 4 wheel drive model that I also now have. All had factory size tires. I bought a 3 step stool that fits on the back seat so I can get to the bed, about 6" higher being a 4 wheel drive but for the disk breaks they went up to a 245-70-16" tire from the 215-75-15 on the earlier trucks. And that 215-75-15 is same size that the 70 GMC and 74 Chevy had from factory. I will 99.99% of time just use the back seat to haul cargo even if it is just groceries. I had a 86 Ford F250 that I needed a ladder just to get in the cab and it had factory size tires on a 2 wheel drive so it is not just ne new ones that are so overheight.
