The article on the new F-150 mentions weight savings through metal held water. Google was not helpful.

Are you joking? Hard to tell, because it's not a very clear sentence. The claims of [weight saving] held water, that is, proved to be sound.

the phrase "it holds water" means that the claim they made is true.

The sentence in the article wasn't clear. It also wasn't clear if you were joking or asking seriously. And apparently I wasn't clear either, so we're three out of three.

Hah, suck it Meatloaf.
