Default My 2001 Exp is headed to the yard

Well after 250 miles my Exp is headed to the yard. The 4 corner leveling system stopped working and the back went to the ground. I am sure I could have replaced the rear sensors but as I was under it, I saw the frame were the dryer is mounted is rusted and bending. The body has had it. I put 1.5 square tubing in to replace the rear frame 4 years ago. The brine water they put on the roads in the winter kill the truck. The motor is still strong and doesn't smoke, newer brakes and claipers... The yard will give me $500. any needs a parts trucke?? I am in STL area. It comes with some parts.

This was my daily driver and would have driven it for the next 4 years till retirement but I am sick of the rust. The body is too far gone but someone could use the running gear.

ADMIN if this isn't allowed, please delete.

PS I will be posting in the 2020 F150 King Range area for now on.

For anyone purchasing a new vehicle, Especially in the salt belt, would be a wise investment to have vehicle thoroughly undercoated to help prevent a lot of this.

It was a common practice to undercoat new vehicles until they came out with galvanized parts that didn't last that much longer.
