What areas are prone to rust?
I am hopefully trading my 04 F150 in on a 02 F350, but the only thing that has me a little concerned is if I will end up with a rust bucket in a couple years. I called a friend of mine who owns a body shop to see if he will look the truck over for me. What areas should I look at to see if there is any rust forming?

The bed (due to a drop in liner)
I also have some rust over the wheel wells due to the awful fender flares that were on the truck when I bought it.. They trapped dirt which caused it. It isn't bad and can't be seen from more than 5' away. I do have some rust forming on the outside of the right rear door. Probably a weak spot in the paint is all that I can think of.

That's partly why I opted for the Line-X spray-in The '96 had this issue too with it's plastic liner It's so banged up now, it has no liner
Now, if one still wants to use a plastic liner to help lessen dents they can put that over the spray-in liner for extra measure...
