I'm in upstate NY, at 360k those trucks are beyond the scrap yard. It's a shame too,cause they are great vehicles. I've got a super clean 2012 I'm doing my best to keep mother nature at bay with. Twice a year I fluid film the undercarriage, I've cavity waxed the trouble spots, added rear fender well covers and go as far doing some minor disassembly to clean out the junk that builds up in places. Great looking clean truck you've got.👍👍

I take a couple cans of rust Neutralizer and spray the heck out of that frame of mine and keep the wheel wells and trouble spots cleaned out with a pressure washer really good... eventually either I'm going to get a new truck and retire this to show garage or undercoat the chassis and trouble areas with a rust preventive coating of some sort

Because of my disdain for new cars I'm always looking for a good deal.  I found this 93 cougar sitting in a junkyard and ended up buying it. The car has 38,000 miles on it, and it was in the junkyard because the front brakes were metal to metal, both window motors needed rollers, and there was a busted brake line where somebody jacked the car up in the wrong place. So far it's been great and everything works as it should. And it actually cost less than a car payment on a new car.
