It looked really bad.
Me and my friend have put at least a 1000lb of green fire wood in the bed of his tacoma, it held it quite well. But he replaced the old shocks and springs with new factory springs some time around 2006.
With out wood sides to add hight to the sides of the bed you cant put enough green waste/product the bed to over load it.
You would only be able to over load it would be with dirt, sand, bags of concrete, packs of shingles and stuff like that I think.
We found that a full bed of green wood and my trailer loaded with nearly a half cord of green wood seemed to be about the limit of what the tacoma should pull and that was only because braking and stopping got scarry at times.
If the trailer had trailer brakes then we would need a bigger trailer.
