Why not go with a F450 or F550 with a good hauler bed built on it? I know not out of the ordinary but it is functional.

I have a F550 Lariat 4x4 CC with a Classy Chassis oem bed conversion it. The truck weighs in at 9300 with full tanks (a 40 rear and a 19 mid), myself, 2 of my kids (60#), roll-n-lock tonneau, gooseneck hitch, and a small tool box with tools. It has a 17,950 GVWR so I am able to carry 8650 additional pounds of "cargo" in the bed. I use it in the fields to haul hay, carry fencing supplies out for repairs, etc.

Other than that you may want to give a look to 2L Custom Trucks a look, maybe they can order one of their Internationals in 4x6.

Or take a look at one of teh several companies that convert the F650 like:

F650 Super Truck or Alton Mfg.
