Post Most chip resistant paint job

I'm building a trayback for my new F250 Supercab And I'm wondering what might be the most resilient paintwork to put on.I've been told that powder coat may be best and that enamel is tougher than epoxys. Can anyone help put the record straight.

Imron hands down! Used on aircraft and other harsh environment equipment. On a differant note....bedliner spray or roll on is real tough too.

Imron is a very good paint, and Endura is a pretty good 2 part expoxy also. All though both are a pain to spray. Or you can get Endura epoxy clear coat and spray that over Standox or a Sikkens base paint.
