I had an F-250 that was the worse snow plow truck I ever owned. With the plow up and in two wheel drive it couldn't move on wet grass!
I put a piece of plastic sheeting down in the bed and poured 4" of concrete. smoothed it out and painted it black. Looked great and what a huge difference it made in that truck. When I sold the truck (ten years later) I simply hit the concrete with a sledge hammer and broke it into pieces. Came out very easy and the bed was in brand new condition underneath.........
I had put conveyor belt rubber around the perimeter of the bed before I poured the concrete so even the sides of the bed were like new........

With all of the snow and ice gripping the country due to the global warming thing I figure thi would be in high demand as a traction adder.
