Default 4x12 drywall in a pickup truck?

wrote:
I need to get 10 sheets of 4x12 1/2" drywall home. I have an F150 full
bed pickup truck. With the tailgate down, I would have 10ft of
carrying surface. How bad it is to leave 2ft of the drywall (10
sheets) hanging out the back? Also, I think a sheet would weigh about
80lbs...is that right?

How about laying about 3 planks(2x4x6-8-10) in the bed extend them
out the two feet and lay the drywall sheets on them that way sheets are
supported the full 12 feet.
