Guy's drunk.
How many times have you heard of a "damaged suspension component, a leaf spring a hanger or damage to the frame welds" on a GM or RAM truck?
How many GM or RAM frames have you ever or even heard of "crumbling irreparable frame damage" LOL A crumbling frame? Really?
So I'll ask again. GM went to a box; Ram went to a box; and now Ford is going to a box.................and they are ALL wrong? All of them? Really?
At one time GM didn't recommend installing snow plows onto their HD trucks because of their hydro formed frames. I know some have and reported frames cracking in the front sections around where the bumper is attached to the frame IIRC. Like I said earlier I hope Ford uses thicker steel in their frames because a frame that isn't designed to flex, but is flexed due to some serious loads will be a fatigued frame.
