    My 2005 doesn't have one bit of rust except on the rear bumper around the license plate lites and side edges. It's ugly. I tried repairing it myself but came right back. I was thinking about a chrome stock one and keep it polished but didn't know how that would be. What is your thoughts. I plan on keeping this truck for awhile, only 59k miles.

    I'm guessing everything behind that bumper is rusted so be prepared for a fight when you remove it. Least expensive option would be looking for a takeoff from someone installing an aftermarket rear bumper or you can search car-part.com for salvage yard inventory.

    I sold the chrome bumper for $125 when I installed an aftermarket bumper.
