Hey Jeff; thanks for the question and there is really just one option to carry your heavy ebikes in the bed of your 2022 Ford F-150, and that's with a tailgate pad bike rack:

- Thule GateMate Pro Tailgate Pad for Full-Size Trucks # TH824PRO

All other truck bed racks have weight limits which your 75 lb bikes far exceed, which is why the pad is the only way to haul the bikes. It does have soft foam padding for cushioning your bikes and straps to prevent them from moving as you travel.
