"No more funny that the PRISTINE beds of two-year-old Ford F-150s."

Pickups used in package delivery, and those used as tow vehicles, rarely show much wear. Is this a bad thing somehow?

"No more funny than a Ford F-150 in Lincoln badging."

Or a Toyota 4-runner in Lexis badging?

Any truck bed that’s used is going to show some wear.
The fact is, most people that buy trucks, especially 4x4 trucks, will never use that vehicle for its capabilities.

However, the guy who buys a Prius in the foolhardy thinking that he’s going to a) save money or b) save the planet is the only one deserving of ridicule?

Ask a Lincoln truck owner if he’ll haul a load of sod for you.

I've noticed with some of my friends trucks that they are using a much better paint/coat than they used to. I haven't seen a newer model scratched up like you would in the past, even for the folks that haul around a lot of landscaping material. (not going into what happens when you haul bricks). The last truck I had was a 2000 Ram 2500 and a grocery bag would scratch the bed.. There is a big difference now.
