Lots of question about rust. This truck has rust. I had my mechanic watch for safety issues with rust. I had the brake lines replaced. The only area I've seen were its rusted through is the passenger rocker panel. There are two spots that rusted through. One hole is about 18 long, under the passenger step and another behind b-pillar is about 6 inches. The driver's side rocker panel is fine. The frame looks fine, some surface rust. the bed is fine, probably because of the liner and the cap which were purchased when I bought the truck new. The reason I am selling; my mechanic told me the exhaust manifold is rusted and is leaking. It needs to be replaced to pass inspection.
