Hi all - first post here.
I am by no means a "car guy", but have been trying to do some research before I jump into the GX game. I am planning to buy one for "light" off-roading. (dirt roads, some mud/snow here in the adirondacks/catskills.. little to no chance of getting stuck anywhere).
Anyways - I was sent two short clips (sorry for the poor video quality) of the undercarriage. I am seeing rust on lots of the weld joints, and various spots... but I don't know entirely what I'm looking at, or if this is a bad sign. Car is in Maryland, so salted roads are not uncommon in the winter.
I am okay with spending $$ when replacing some rusted parts (exhaust system, bars, etc.) but what do you think? If everything else is in good driving condition, should I pull the trigger? Thanks!
