Our 2017 f150 bed got beat up just by using it everyday.
Ford aluminum truck bed test.
These tests lead to ford selecting a thicker aluminum for the bed floor and redesigning an access panel.
If your ford s bed does not completely correspond to your purposes you have an opportunity to right this wrong.
I could tell it was weaker than steel as pretty much everything dented it.
Line x solved the issue.
An aluminum truck bed typically weighs up to 40 less than a steel bed of the same strength.
A steel truck bed weighing 2 000 pounds can therefore be replaced by an aluminum truck bed that s up to 800 pounds lighter.
But for the most part the aluminum passed with flying colors.
