The bed of those massive trucks isn't big enough to fit a single grand piano, much less 3. They just made everything else bigger. The beds are still the same size as a 1980s Toyota pickup.

The beds are so tiny on some of those trucks, they're useless for any cargo job, at most they're useful for camping trips, so you can throw a cooler back there, and some bags. Maybe haul a small boat.

We call them "daddy's little boy trucks" where I live.

Wow, I can't believe I overestimated the size of these things.
