What's next....truck beds with plastic and cloth instead of aluminum? They still have to be a "truck" once in a while...lol

Toyota Tacoma and Honda Ridgeline both have composite beds. Aluminum beds are a non issue that Chevy is just using for marketing. I started buying the new Super Duties for my Company. We havent had any issues with the trucks period let alone issues with hauling heavy items. That's what bedliners are for. Been using them in some form from the first truck I've own. First bed liners were a sheet of 3/4 plywood. Steel beds will get wrecked without protection too. I've seen it many times on Job sites over the years.
