Yes, this problem is definitely quality issues at Ford, and not in how you haphazardly setup your tie-downs. Ford will probably pay the repair costs if you bring it to the dealer.

Fender flare damage was nylon/cotton blend rubbing- ya kidding me? Wore down sections in it-Cheap. If it can’t handle a bungee cord rubbing hows it hold up against brush!?!?
Bumper damage also solely from cord/rope rubbing
Bedside damage only part caused by actual hook.
All the contractors out there buying AL body work trucks - especially the HD ones that’ll be putting in real work, they’re going to be in for some real issues. I don’t see how it’s possible for an actual work truck to stand up...these AL beds are def not gonna last if you actually use em as intended- maybe why GM offers carbon fiber now???
.
The bed side tho? Ouch. I’m sure both sides of the bed have a fair share of clear coat scratches too. Will buff & wax after vacation get a better look @ what’s going on, but that dent/burn is no joke. Texted pic to my body shop buddy see what he thinks....probably dreading having to work w/ aluminum lol!
