Your not really helping. :>)
I am going to see if I can ask the question again. Let me say again this is not a dig at Ford. As others have pointed out other manufactures are building with aluminum.
My brother is a retired fireman and I have concerned myself with these kinds of things.
Lets try it again:
First thing I noticed in the list of materials listed in the aircraft grade Aluminum, was manganese and magnesium.
At what percentages does the addition of Manganese and magnesium to aluminum affect the ability to extinguish a vehicle/aircraft fire.
This post is not intended to be a dig at Ford. If aluminum works all manufacturers are certainly going to switch to it.
It is a honest question seeking a answer.

Please if you aren't going to or can't answer the question. Let others that may know, answer it.
