Anything is possible.
Yes you can make a 9' fit in a truck. Assuming it is transferred in pieces and not a full blown table. LOL

Probably, but some parts are going to be hanging out the back of your 5.5' bed. Just wrap it so it doesn't get dinged, secure it well so you don't kill anybody and you should be fine.
Please use 1 thread for all your questions!
ok, sorry. I thought this was better. I thought this would allow people to interact with the questions they wanted to and ignore the others. I'll do better. Apologies.
it's already disassembled.
just wrap everything in thick moving blankets. make sure all the hardware is tagged-n-bagged. if it even remotely might rain tarp the shit out of it. outta be ok.
Then nobody can answer this better than you
his point is its FAR better to sit down, make a list of all your questions on this one table/topic and then make one thread. much easier/more productive than putting threads/posts all over the place.

Stop beating around the bush. If it is disassembled then you can get it in the truck.
Go to the truck forums and you would probably get laughed at.
Not true. I haven't seen it and don't know how big the broken down pieces are. Others may have actually done what I'm thinking of doing and can chime in with how successful it was a.

Don't give us truck owners a bad name now.
Not trying to beat around the bush. Just not familiar with the length of some of the pieces or how they might get damaged hanging out of the truck. I was trying to find folks who have done this. If they did with the tailgate up (and the items propped up on tailgate, or tail gate down. Sorry, not trying to waste anyone's time.
Moving a Gold Crown IV in a min van
Somewhere I have read that a disassembled GC can fit in a minivan. I am buying a GC that is about 200 miles away and my vehicle options are a minivan (the wife's) or my extended cab full size pick up. I would have it moved by a table mechanic but the room it will reside in is not ready yet and...

This helps as it's the same size truck as mine. Thanks!

You're not wasting anyone's time. I guess what everyone is trying to say is, yes, you can transport it since the table is disassembled.
-tie down the rails together with the straps w/ ratchet system. Then tie it down to the bed. Tailgate down since it will give you at least another foot.
-legs throw it in the back and cross tie them to your bed. There should be hooks on every truck bed.
It can't be done in one trip so factor that into how much you want to load. Don't overload first trip and a few pieces the next.
