You have a good one there also. Minnesota is the salt capital of the world. They salt the roads when it rains in winter. The trick is to watch the problem spots and keep ahead of it. It's first 4 years were in Texas, that helps. The box was smashed in on one side when I bought it so I got a new take off on eBay for $300. I didn't put the box on until about 4 years ago but the original was rust free. These Fords have a very solid body.
