I think the paint used on the frames and undercarriage, even the later trucks, is just too thin and low quality to do any good, regardless of where you live. When I picked my truck up from the dealer, it already had some surface rust on a few spots on the rear diff, and it was mfg'd less than a month before I picked it up.

Now, with 30k miles and 1 mild MD winter under my '06s belt (Oct. '06 production), I've found a couple spots where the frame is rusting near welds and the paint is flaking off. Guess it's time to hit it with a wire wheel and POR15.
