Something I find interesting, one of my friends has a new Chevy Silverado Duramax 3/4 ton and his tailgate (steel) weighs maybe half of what mine weighs. He borrowed my Quad a few months ago and my loading ramps and bent his tailgate loading the quad. real strong' stuff there I'd say. I found it funny in a way. I've never had an issue loading my quad in my Ford.

They build them thinner and cheaper every year but the price keeps climbing.

Your friend must've done something very wrong or there was a problem with his.

I've got plenty of friends who bed load their big bore quads (850lbs +), myself included, in their modern truck and no one has ever had an issue with a tailgate.

So no, I don't agree with your opinion.
