As a tractor owner the only thing I noticed was that idiot walking under the bucket of the skid steer while they were unloading the blocks. Big time safety no no!
Those guys were likely the suit and tie types that haven't worked much in the real, hands-on world and have no concept of how quickly things can go very bad around machinery.
Same thing with folks who tow and not knowing how things 'might' go
when Mr Murphy crosses their path
Last job was a suit in corporate, but early careers designing industrial
controls...drove stuff in the shop and out at the job sites. Plus in
steel mills installing robotics...there is a reason for that yellow
line, hard hats, steel toed shoes, safety rules (break them and fired
spot on), etc...
Anyway, the mold for drop in bed liners are of the same sizing and
think the Ridgeline has several parts. Wonder if hand laid up, or
sprayed in cut fibers...if glass.
Composites, IMHO, are not good for this kind of usage. Maybe every
once in a while, but not on a regular basis
It really depends on the make-up of that composite, which looks like
a coating of bed liner on top of the composite
Composite may look just fine after this type of usage, but it the
fibers (just a few) fractured...stress raisers that will propagate
into ever larger cracks
