Unhappy Rust on a 2012

I have a 2012 F-150 Supercrew FX4 that's starting to show a bit of rust, primarily on the front and rear bumpers and then on the undercarriage of the body below the doors.

I have a few questions on this 1) are there any recommendations to either inhibit the further spread of this rust or remove it altogether? 2) Ideally, I'd like to keep a hold of this truck for another 2 years before trading in, but in that span how much worse can this rust expect to get? Is the rust going to continue to get worse to the point that I'll end up losing a bunch in trade-in value (as compared to potentially trading in now)? I live in the Upper Midwest of the U.S. so snow/ice/sand/salt comes into play in the winter months.
