Does any normal human being say "flatbed"?

[WillyBrandt]

I think I've only heard that word in Craftsmatic commercials.

ON EDIT: I mean, in reference to a "regular bed" as opposed to a Craftmatic adjustable bed.

A train car or tractor trailer for hauling large, uncovered loads is called a "flatbed."
