Abstract

A folding deck assembly is provided which is mounted on a fifth wheel truck rearwardly of the cab of the truck. The folding cargo deck assembly may be selectively moved from a stowed position rearwardly of the cab of the truck to a position which extends rearwardly from the cab so that the cargo deck assembly may support cargo thereon when the truck is not being used to pull a trailer.
