Last summer I noticed something hanging down under the passenger side. The three 3/8 bolts rusted out at the muffler flange connection.
Also the chrome is blistering and the front and rear emblems have separated.
Did I mention the pitted forged aluminum wheels that I stripped and polished at 40,000 miles because they were out of warranty at 36,000 miles.
Trucks are all rusty underneath BEFORE built. I saw rusty rears installed once in 2008 .

I oil them asap when I get a new vehicle
