The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

Wow. The bed floor looks like "Sea state condition #5" (nothing but big waves and swells)

Didn't really take too much abuse to mess up those early steel bed floors. The old farmers that were used to throwing things into the beds with the old wood floors soon found that out. Once bent, more bending came pretty easy. I think Dodge may have used thicker metal on the later models, they seemed to be tougher.

Our 67 D200 bed was wavy between all the cross ribs.
Countless loads of hay, fencing and gravel etc wore that truck out. Our 77 bed didn't get wavy at all.
