My 99 F250 around town/ plow truck has 204K on it. it definitely has taken a rust hit since Moultonborough switched to all salt (Magic Salt, I believe). I have to go under it this winter and repair cab corners and bottom of doors and rockers. It is a 7.3 diesel 6 speed truck which are not available any longer so I hope to milk 5 more years out of it!
It is also parked in my heated Morton building in the winter with the plow on it. I have a feeling that is causing some of the problem as well with heat speeding up the process as opposed to sitting there semi frozen in my driveway. So I may look you up for next winter, Moxie!!
