The Stake truck is practical for hauling large loads with a full width bed. Variations include: With taller stakes it becomes a Stock truck. Without stakes, a Flat bed or Table top. With tilting bed a Dump or Tipper. With rollers added to the tilt, It makes a great vehicle for hauling old vehicles. It's shortcoming is a high load height. Many commercial companies ad a lift gate the aid in loading. Many private owners take advantage of the height by placing the engine under the bed. Mechanics hate that inaccessibility.
