    They build these machines out of special steels, dipped in salt and **** to start the corrosion process it seems right as they leave the lot!! Not seen one that was not actively rusting fast enough to hear the paint lift. Looking good though!

    I believe you this is a 2012 and the prep work was brutal....it had rust in places i didn't know even exists....almost done i need to do some light rust repair in the door on the upper cab paint the weights and out riggers and she is done. Next job is the National boom truck....
