The old fashioned lumber yard used to deliver 16 ft by 8 ft 4 and 5 ft tall hog shades on the back of a '67 Chevy C-30 with 8 ft flatbed. Strap it down tight on the front. They had 2x6's across the bed for the shade to sit on. Guy my Dad drove for hauling livestock was their driver. He'd get the shade where the farmer wanted it and release the strap and the rear dropped to the ground, then he'd pull forward. Besides the big hog shades we made LOTS and LOTS of modified A hog houses. I could take a pile of dimension lumber, pressure treated 2x6's, assembled ends, and several sheets of CDX 3/8" plywood cut to size and in about 15 minutes I'd have a completed and painted hog house. The truck could haul 6 or 8 of those per load. The lumber yard used to have a bigger truck, C-60 size, 14 or 16 ft bed but it needed work so they sold it.
