Mine are no show trucks so probably not what you’re question really is— but I have two flatbeds that get really used. My 51 gmc is a 1 ton factory dump bed, works great but yes the bed is up on a couple timbers, above where a pickup bed height would be. The other is a 73 1 ton with a 16’ deck and a cab forward setup. It’s lower than the other but pretty easy to overload with all that room..
