I saw a 90s ranger with 15 to 20 bags 60lb bags of concrete in the bed at lowes.
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.
So a decades old truck sagged more under comparable load to a truck with fresh springs? That's not much of a damning indictment of the old one.
