My buddy plows with his trucks. He had one Ford that he carefully washed underneath after every storm, that rusted through in many places in four years. You need to get under it and study where the salt brine will get into and sit, and where dust will make mud against the sheet metal and never dry out. On my Ford I had noticed that door bottoms rust out. I found that the outer skin laps over the inner, after a few years the paint cracks and moisture gets in. I watched for it and when I saw it happening I took a screwdriver and dragged it across, pulling off the lifting paint. I then sprayed WD-40, gave it a day to penetrate, then sprayed aerosol chain lube which comes out very thin then sets up. Many cars and trucks rust out above the rear tires because there is a piece of rubber that the moisture gets trapped behind. You can look right up and back at them from just ahead of the wheel well. It is very easy to spray WD-40 up at them and let it run down in. For all you WD-40 haters you can use whatever, but moisture displacement and some degree of stickiness are needed.
