The total weight savings didn't go towards reducing the overall weight of the truck. Ford did spend some of that weight savings to go back into upgrading other components to make them more robust (specifically the frame if I recall correctly).
The switch to aluminum probably did save them close to 700lbs but they probably put 200 to 300 of that back into the truck in other areas.
