Signs of Rust...

[Legazy]

Hi everyone, was just looking for feedback/guidance. I was installing my Ford OEM towing hitch and when I was underneath the Bronco, I noticed signs of rust. I'm not sure if this is normal and its nothing to worry about (limited knowledge of vehicles)?

For background, I recently took delivery of my Bronco about two weeks ago, I live in Miami away from the beach (closer to the Everglades).

Thanks in advance everyone!

Normal.

Yep Normal drive shafts always seem to rust almost immediately.

Yep, mine was the same from the day I took delivery
Although I did run one of these under the undercarriage to rinse off any road salt from up north after delivery (I'm in Florida too). I use it anytime I drive down the beach as well.

Yeah it's common, here is engine rust because that part is iron.
