Buying a 1999 to 2000'ish Silverado 1500 - Opinion on this rust from pictures please?
Hey guys. I'm trying to find a good condition 2000'ish Silverado 1500 Ext. Cab, 4wd with the 5.3.
Can you guys tell anything from these pictures about the rust and/or lack thereof on the undercarriage/frame of this one? The rest of the truck is immaculate but trying to see if this is going to be worth the trip for me based on the pictures I received of the underside.
Thanks for any information you can provide.
(These were all sent to my cell so they aren't super high res)

Where is it located and where was it operated for almost 20 years? For a 20 year old truck, It doesn't look too bad from those pics. Maybe some winter driving with rock salt but still not too bad looking. I'm in the SE and my 2002 Ram 1500 with 176,000 miles has very little rust underneath. We don't get much snow so they usually only brine the roads if ice is predicted.
