If you do a web search for  truck hitch bed extender  you'll find quite
a few.

The frenzy is pretty short so it should be pretty easy to find one that
will work
for you.

I've seen a couple bed extenders with light hook ups.

I drive a car so I have no personal experience.  I just like the idea of
loading a
boat at waist level.
