    Why would people on a Tacoma forum be interested in a rusty F150?

    Not "interersted" as in in "buying it", but interested in it as a phenomenon--an example of it not being just Tacoma's that rust out their frames...

    It is 15 years old and by the looks of it lived most of its life with salty ocean breezes... I don't know why this was posted in a TW forum either, as steel rusts. :confused: :rolleyes: o_O

    I posted ity because in the numerous "frame rust lawsuit" discussions, and in the lawsuit language itself, it was often put forth as a problem unique to Toyota; with wailings as to why Toyota used such crappy steel, etc. Cannot recall anyone putting forth the simple and inescapable premise that "steel rusts" in those threads...

    Perhaps to highlight the fact that it's not just Tacomas that have frame corrosion issues?
