This is an interesting discussion. Each truck that I have owned in the last 25 years, new or used was undercoated with Ziebart. Also, each truck box was Rhinolined. My 1996 Chevy 3500 crewcab, dually, diesel, manual 5 speed, had 170,000 miles when I sold it with my 5th wheel camper. My 2003 Chevy 2500 extended cab, 4x4 had 208,000 miles when I sold it to my son for his wife. She has since given it to their sons to share. (I don't know the current miles) For a short time, I had a used 2014 Chevy 2500 Crewcab 4x4, diesel. It had 49,000 miles when I decided that I did not need a diesel that need Diesel Emission Fluid. I sold it for what I had in it. I bought new my 2018 Chevy club cab, 4x4, 5.3 v8. I installed Michelin E rated tires. I added air bags to the rear axle for load handling. It has Ziebart undercoat and Rhino lined box. Today, it got an annual underbody/frame inspection and touchup at Ziebart. I bought this truck in early January 2018. It has 35,000 miles. None of those trucks above had rusted out frames. Unless something happens, I'm hoping this will be my last truck. I'm 78.

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: JB Weld - by Staff. JB Weld is basically an epoxy glue that does an exceptionally good job of bonding to cast iron and steel along with several other materials. As I mentioned, it is so common that I have yet to buy a tractor that did not have JB Weld used somewhere. It is sometimes used so well you can't tell its there and other times used as a sloppy quick fix. Finding where and how it can be used correctly is key to whether you are using it as an "inelegant hack" or an integral solution to difficult and expens
