Default 4x12 drywall in a pickup truck?

The slightest bend and the tailgate will never close right again. How
much is that worth to you? I'd rent a trailer or move it in 2 or more
trips.

???????????????? NEVER had a problem with using the tailgate to support
drywall. Of course they were all Chevy's, not Fords.

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?
