It makes no difference whether the truck was constructed of aluminum alloy or steel. There are all sorts of plastic bits underneath modern vehicles. The interiors are loaded with plastic. Just a Ford bashing post.

Might change your mind if you lived in the rust belt......Oh never mind, even aluminum Fords rust.No. It's like saying I just prefer steel.
I lived in the "rust belt" for 38 years. Salt will corrode Aluminum as fast or faster than it will rust steel.Might change your mind if you lived in the rust belt......Oh never mind, even aluminum Fords rust.
Still a total loss. Again, just a Ford bashing thread.The difference is, if it were constructed of steel, it would be a total loss with the cab intact. EDIT: Or as intact as you'd expect it to be after a fire, which would basically be some rusted steel and ash.
My point exactly. Doesn't matter what it was made out of, the next stop for that pickup is a scrapyard.Still a total loss. Again, just a Ford bashing thread.
want to see underneath my 20 year old salt belt aluminum car? it’s pristine as can be, steel subframe not quite as niceI lived in the "rust belt" for 38 years. Salt will corrode Aluminum as fast or faster than it will rust steel.
Aluminum constructed car bodies are no salvation for the salt covered roads in the, "rust belt". It's why you will never see a salt truck anywhere near an airport runway or taxiway.
How is it a Ford bashing thread? It just so happened it was a Ford parked next to that tree..... And melted. The rest, as they say, is history.Still a total loss. Again, just a Ford bashing thread.
I am waiting to see a Swiss cheese aluminum body car. I haven’t seen one yet.want to see underneath my 20 year old salt belt aluminum car? it’s pristine as can be, steel subframe not quite as nice
