Truck for 3/4 car wedge

ok I'm looking for opinions on best truck, or trucks, and if there are certain yrs that are better or should stay away from.

(and yes, I know a tractor is MUCH better suited for the job, but I'm out in California, and well, as a start up, buying a 2008 or newer isnt an option)

So please Vote, and if you can state why, why not, and yr range of vehicle

Thanks for your time

 

trust me, if it was an option, been outta here yrs ago

 

Then again, living 1 hr from the beach, desert, mountains, lakes, and snow, and newer 3,000 sq home in private. Community.... I'll take that over any place in between here and the other coast, rest a country may look pretty....I'll keep my amenities

 

shoot, we don't want them either. Lol.

im really torn, I would have to go used, but here are my thoughts. I've seen some good prices on used 3500's. Low mileage, and possibly not really "worked".... But not the best for the job

seen some used 5500 comparatively priced to the 3500, better suited for the job ( not best),'...... But about 100% chance that it has been used for work, and who knows how much and how hard

 

ok so would somthing like this work (removing that bed). Is something like this, something I can put a legal sleeper on? If not, what kind of min wheel base would I need.
