Default who has rust?

so I'm already pretty OCD about keeping my truck clean to the point that I went after the frame and suspension with a wire wheel and black paint. I was curious if anyone has developed any rust problems on the body yet? If so then where?

under the sill (directly under the wiring chase, but road side)

maybe some mud flaps would help, but, oh well.

Been through 3 Colorado winters and no rust to speak of here. Just checked as I got down and thoroughly cleaned the truck this past weekend.

I've got rust on my roof where the dang paint is peeling. Comes off in big flakes - got to get it painted very soon!
