Default Re: bed depth

I remember the first trucks I noticed the DEEP beds with were the 1/2 ton F150s. I think as far as functionality goes, yeah you can carry more junk in the bed with the higher sides. I think this is a very common design lately, if you also look at the Avalanche and the Ridgeline has the same look (though I haven't been up close to a Ridgeline and looked at the bed)

As a shorter guy (5'7) I end up hopping into the back of the truck regularly, but it doesn't bother me. I don't mind the deeper bed, but I haven't really had to make full use of it yet.
