2. there is absolutely no rational to using something as heave as steel.

Depends on the vehicle. Mine is not the only truck where -- even if it weighed 200# to use galvanized -- the "penalty" would be unnoticeable in any practical sense with but a 3% weight increase. Something that weighs less and is equally durable may be a better choice, but galvanized over some areas may also make sense.
