What Is The Back Of A Pickup Truck Called?

The back of a pickup truck is called a bed. The bed is actually the cargo compartment of the truck. It's called that way because it resembles a bed, we suppose.

Pickup truck bed frames are typically made of steel or aluminum. They can also be made of magnesium, stainless steel, fiberglass composite material. Bed liner materials include plastic, rubber, carpeting, and specialized coatings for corrosion resistance.

The bed is made for heavy-duty, so the loading capacity of the truck is impressive. You can also find here auxiliary equipment, such as toolboxes, bed extenders, tailgate protectors, and more.

Pickup trucks are widely used for various purposes. However, most people use them to transport cargo. There are some pickup trucks that have special equipment in their beds to transport other vehicles like motorcycles.
