Default Rust.Time to worry?

150 miles only and found under the car rust today.
Time to worry or this is normal for Ford?

Yes normal. "Normal" for Ford. Take a look under a new Tundra.

Normal if it bothers you, grab a brush clean it up then hit it with some good undercoating paint.

I live in OH so all my cars and trucks look like that after a year or so. Or one winter. I normally let it go a year or so then take it down to metal and paint it again.

If you've seen other brand new trucks that have it, then why did you post a thread being worried about it?

Because I think that Ford is better.
