Hey Guys, would you guys drive your truck if it had this rust?

Frame looks fine. Go over it with a pointy hammer to make sure it isn't rusted through and have someone spray oil under it to stop the rust.

As long as it isn't rusted through anywhere I would call that mint. If you spray oil under it regularly (once every one or two years) rust won't be the reason to scrap it. DO NOT put a rubberised undercoating on it though, it will trap moisture and make the rust much worse while blocking you from noticing before it's too far gone.

Drive it like you stole it.
