Sounds like either they build a crappy truck or want you to pay for a bogus service. Or someone on a forum is playing you. Things up north rust out real quick with salt use but that is rediculous.
Crappy truck yes. It's getting its fourth set of AFM lifters after seizing one at 103,000, a second at 140,750 and a third at 141250. Yes, it only ran 500 miles this last time before seizing a lifter again.
This was a forum guy telling me what *I* should have been doing to prevent the rust. Basically blaming me for the truck rusting out already.
They also figured out how to make it my fault that the AFM lifters seized. It's a really crappy forum.
Last summer I decided I needed a pickup vs SUV when I lost my wife. I looked at all three and ruled out the GM's because of this known issue and the RAM's because of the cam issues.
