Tumblr post: "20 years of pickup truck design progress in one photo" with a photo of a pickup truck infront of a much larger pickup truck. Reply: "it's so sad that they've been selectively bred for size and aesthetics over their health. look at that pushed-in muzzle—there’s no way the one on the right can breathe properly"

I think that was in 2014, yeah. I get it honestly, they're much lighter and they won't rust. But the bed should always be steel in my opinion.

    I think the problem is they try to make it the same thickness as the sheet metal from the steel bed. If they made it 1/4" thick like the aluminum side step plates on a Bobcat it wouldn't be a problem and it'd still probably be lighter.
