Depends where you live, but most likely not But since you live in the Boonies, you can do a lot of stuff and get away with it! I used to live in a town with no police station. The nearest trooper station was 17 miles away. a few years ago before I could drive, one of my older buddies bolted the rear seat from a 4runner in the bed of his '88. Its so much fun! lol...

They do that all the time down here, you should see that even the police truck has a couch in the pick-up box.

should be legal as long as all the seat belts in the truck are being used...your cab must be full before people can ride in the back
