You can always find ways to make every brand look bad, just adjust the "test" to suit your strength and their weakness. In all fairness every contractor I know has:
1. Spray in bedliner
2. drop in bedliner
3. a bed mat
4. a piece or plywood
Treating a truck bed like the one from a commercial dump truck will destroy every brand, not jus the aluminum ford beds.
This test is a loser, I give it very little merit because of that.
Some of it isn't realistic but it does bring up some valid considerations. I personally think the F150 is the best half ton by a wide margin compared to the current crop of competitors, but this would certainly give me something to think about. I wouldn't not buy an F150 because of this but I'd sure invest in a bed mat.
The interesting implication here is whether this same issue applies in the new Super Duty, which I believe is also aluminium. It stands to reason that a typical Super Duty is going to take more abuse than a typical F150 so it could be a bigger deal in that application.
