Just looked. Beginning in 2019, Ford went with steel cargo beds. Not the aluminum crap. I'm not a math guy, but I'm pretty fair at backyard physics, and IMO, the cart lacks the mass to do that amount of damage....particularly since it even buckled the body line, which is the stiffest part of the panel. If an empty cart hit hard enough to do that, it would have to be going so fast (60-100 mph) that it would be crumpled. To me, it looks like a car hit it, or as I said earlier, a fully loaded cart weighing over 100 pounds was shoved into it. Piss-poor parking job or not.
