Not pleased with cheap 05 beds. = JUNK

I just looked in the back of my bed and saw the bed liner was dipped down about 3 inches in the left rear corner. All I have hauled in the bed is a 186lb fire hydrant. It pushed and dented the bed down about 3 or 4 inches and started to tear the bed floor from the end where the tail gate meets the bed. I got some pics of it but cant and don't know how to post them here.

If I had known this with the way the bed is and the AC works on this truck I would have kept my 01. There is NO WAY IN HELL

this truck is even close to being built like my old one. What good dose it do me to have a million mile engine and a couple thousand mile body. If this is the way Dodge is going to build them with tissue paper thin metal it will be the last Dodge I own.
I only got 2,100 miles on the truck in 2 months.
