Anti corrosion engineering...

[paxfish]

So Ford doesn't have a great record on this item. My early Broncos died of rust in the NE.

I used many cans of HDMP on my f150 in 2013 trying to forestall rust (good so far...)

I just picked up a 2003 f250 that has water absorbing foam in the fenderwells seemingly designed to accelerate corrosion.

Anybody have insight into the corrosion mitigation engineered into the new Bronco?

Not yet - but I hope Ford engineered the frame with some corrosion protection internally and drain holes.

Major fail on my TJ - Jeep did not think forward and include drain holes. So the middle frame sections especially, get water inside and rust from the inside out. They are notorious for that. If Ford doesn't include frame drain holes - I would drill a few myself.

Also I use a product called Wool Wax (similar to Fluid Film) inside my frame rails and other areas underbody. Can't speak yet to corrosion resistance since I first applied last fall, time will tell. I would consider using that on a new Bronco here in the rust belt.
