It's not like the beds are the same size. Length sure, but don't you know that girth is what mattera for your dick replacements?

Not including the wheel well the Isuzu should be about 47 in. The F-150 is about 42. Including the wheel well it's like 50 on the Isuzu and 52 on the F-150. The Isuzu will have more usable bed space and the wheel wells don't go up very far so they're pretty usable going like 2 inches up.

A tax on vehicle axle weight proportional to the damage done to roads (which goes up exponentially with weight).

Vehicle fee based on some combination of size, weight, and miles driven would be the fairest.

Miles driven is just taken care of in fuel taxes. Sales tax on size, yearly tax based on weightwould be perfect I think.

Yes, something that attempts to assess cost proportional to impact
