Meh.

Another f150 dude mobile with a bumper and the crappy uncomfortable, unrepairable cab and body.

I want a truck that I can actually put crap in the box without it peeling up the bed like a cheese grater...you know like pipe and bundles of t-posts and the such. Or filling with rock at the quarry with a loader, and not worrying about holes in the bed, or setting a motorcycle in the back with having to worry about the kickstand putting a hole in the bed. You know, things that trucks used to do the first day off the lot.

Just get / rent a trailer for hauling a few sheets of plywood etc. I often hear....wtf is the point of the truck then? I have many trailers, and use them when the load won’t fit in the bed. I see it all the time now...8x10 trailer in tow behind a new truck with 3-4 items that easily fit in the bed.

Might as well be driving a SUV or car if all your truck does is haul tiny trailers for loads that easily fit in the bed.

Different strokes for different folks. I could get past the looks if I knew the truck body could stand up to the normal work that trucks used to be able to do with out having to replace the bed with a flatbed.

Till that time I’ll stick with my 2016 “real” Superduty that doesn’t look like a F150 in any way.

Remember how badly GM bashed Ford for making an aluminum truck ? I knew this day would come, it was just a matter of time!!

It makes sense for weight reduction, not in the bed though, I'd rather have the weight.

my point.it's t 6061.there's no such thing as "military grade".call a metal supply and ask for "military grade" they will probably think your're a moron. my scope rail for my sks is made from billet aluminum.doesn't make it military grade.2,3,5,6,7.

I prefer an all steel truck, but I also like better gas mileage. The aluminum body on the Ford trucks is a blessing for anyone living in Ohio or any other state's that spread salt on the roads in the winter. After 10-12 winters in Ohio , our vehicle's are pretty much rotted out!!!!
