HA!!! I remember a couple years ago when the Ford faithful were bashing the Tundra for a similar test. The Tundra's frame is weak, you are going to see piles of them on the side of the road (small piles... they have a small market share... but piles nonetheless!).
Now that GM is doing the same test that shows the Ford frame flexes... suddenly the Ford faithful realize the test is ridiculous.
All these video's do is create worthless propaganda for the ignorant masses. This "test" doesn't prove anything. Metal fatigue will cause a frame to fail. Built in frame flex will prevent fatigue, leading to a frame that is more durable.
Bottom line, these trucks are engineered for specific weights and longevity. So long as you use your vehicle within the means, you will be fine. Don't tow 30,000 lbs with a Tundra... it should last a long time. Don't tow with only 2 opposing wheels on a F250... it should last a long time.
These "tests" are pandering to the dumbest customers who favor blind brand loyalty over common sense and truth.
