First time owning a truck or anything that is chromed out. What steps should I take to protect it for the northeast winters, salt, and snow.

Also lately because of work, my truck has been getting a lot more muddy then usual, anything I should do underneath to protect from over rusting?

 

best thing you can do is wash the frame off and the truck whenever youre done driving in that crap...thats what i do and the ranger i traded in on my F150 looked brand new and wax monthly
