Im not even involved in this argument but I’m just gonna say your crazier than hell! There is a big difference between telling someone adding a quart of oil between a 5000-10,000 mile oil change interval is normal and adding a quart every 500 miles. And don’t tell me chevys don’t use oil I had a 09 that GM
told me a quart every 1000 miles was normal. And even the Toyota I just traded in on my F150 the oill level would go down and I even sometimes would add a little between the 10,000 mile oil changes. And as far as clear coat and all that other stuff I could care less mine is not a “show truck” it’s a money maker it’s going to get scratches and dings here and there.

Is that what you stated earlier? NO it’s not! You said missed clear coat in the doors or something like that. Again big difference between Ford quality control issues and damage after production. And no I wouldn’t buy a hail damaged vehicle I prefer putting the dings in myself. You voted for Biden didn’t you? 😂

note sure how this got to politics, but please take your pro Biden agenda somewhere else. This is a thread about rust on new trucks. Are you proud these rusties are made in the US of A?

Yeah exactly. Strawman arguments rarely prove anything. Claiming that those other 2 manufacturers don't have the issue or a similar one is laughable. And proves nothing. Unless op has been under a rock for the last 10 years, I thought everyone knew about the Toyota class action lawsuits for underbody rust. I mean I worked at Toyota for 3 years. I'll never forget the stacks of frames we had out behind our shop. Tacoma's literally split in half. Pics are all over Google. Chevy is known for it also. YouTube has videos etc. Also the paint straw man is interesting. I'm an auto painter of 23 years. I've worked at Ford, Chevy, Toyota, Nissan, Honda and Hyundai(current place), so I know all those manufacturers have those paint issues as well.

Are you talking about the diff rusting? Idk. Looks like the truck has been driven. Judging by the mud slung up under there. I live in Wisconsin. Work in MN. My garage floor is covered in salt. From snow melting off my truck all year. My 21 has 11k miles. No where near the rust in the pic you posted
