SS Ford!

Now why can't they build an F150 out of SS. I know, cost $. Wow, is that cool, I'd mortgage my soul for a rust proof truck in the salt belt. Something I've though about for years, SS that is. I'd really like to know how the new aluminum trucks will hold up against the road salt? How did they fair in testing with the new military grade aluminum alloy? Up here in MN the salt corrodes right through business door ways that have to be replaced every few years because they just corrode away and expand to the point where they won't close anymore. I wonder if they plan to seal it with some special treatment/process?
