    After reading several posts on rust and rust proofing, I think I will paint the under carriage of the truck, since it is brand new, with Rustoleum and spray it several times a year with Fluid Film. Does Rutoleum require a primer?

    A little of this and a little of that.
    I've always painted the frames, fender wells, axles, and various brackets of my trucks with rattle can black paint. It keeps the truck looking good from the ground up.

    I don't currently live where they salt the roads, or near the ocean like you, but I've never had any rust issues on frames.

    I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think you need to primer before using rustoleum. Follow the instructions and you'll be golden.

    Good luck.
