    My 2012 Silverado is superior to my old '76 1/2 ton in every way except the ability to jump. I won't be trying that in the new one, they're just too flimsy.

            1928 Lincoln body is aluminum. I'm not sure my dad's 1998 S10 hood isn't aluminum, it's unbelievably light.

                a lot of the automakers are utilizing aluminum for various panels... my nephew's Malibu maxx has a hatch made of the aluminum... chipped the edge, didn't notice until the first salt season that the corrosion went under the paint! looking for a new hatch now! ever tried stopping the progression of aluminum oxide behind paint or clearcoat?
