Depending on where you live, you may think it’s difficult finding a dealership that only sells rust free vehicles. We’re happy to tell you that, with our worldwide shipping, we can provide rust free trucks for sale to customers anywhere. We’ve probably all been at a used auto dealership shopping around when we notice some ugly rust, maybe on the underside or in the wheel well. That won’t happen when you shop at Ultimate Rides. We put in the work to ensure our inventory is clean, runs well, and is rust-free. Take a look at our current selection of vehicles to see if there’s something for you.

Sourcing Vehicles Free of Rust

Used vehicles are always something of a gamble. The difference between your average preowned auto dealer and Ultimate Rides is that we do everything we can to ensure the quality of our inventory. That means sending our buyers down to the south, despite being based out of the Chicago area. That’s because the climate that is much more favorable towards taking care of a vehicle. We track down the options that fit our inventory, and bring them home to get ready for our customers.

We might specialize in trucks, but there’s no telling what you might find on a given day at Ultimate Rides. That could include a retro pickup that’s still in excellent shape, or a cutting edge sports car decked out with a new interior. The only thing we can say for sure is that if you’re looking to drive something unique, there’s no better place to shop.

Reasons to Avoid Rust At All Costs

The most obvious negative that rust brings to a vehicle is to its style. Any way you try to swing it, rust damage is ugly. It creates holes in parts of your vehicle, and of course causes that copper-tinged color. Even beyond that, there are plenty of reasons why you’ll want to keep rust away from your vehicle. Over time, that corrosion can eat through integral parts of the vehicle. This can bring about severe safety issues, essentially making your vehicle undrivable.

Once a little bit of rust appears, it doesn’t take long before it starts spreading. One of the worst parts is that rust isn’t always easily visible. You’ll want to really get down underneath and check everything out, which our team does. You can also feel free to have an independent inspection before choosing one of our rust free trucks for sale. We want our customers to be as confident as possible when they drive away, or have one of our vehicles shipped out.

Our Mechanics Love Our Rust Free Trucks

We have our own ASE certified service shop right here at our dealership. Robert our service advisor is the man and his team are the ones that inspect every rust free truck we send here. When they get under a truck and can take everything apart with hand tools, they just love it. No crazy torches, huge pry bars and back breaking rusty parts to repair and replace. When it comes to these southern trucks, inspections and repairs are a breeze.

Every vehicle that we sell goes through a bumper to bumper inspection with Robert. He will not let any vehicle we sell go down the road with problems. We are in a small town on the outskirts of Chicago suburbs, and if you sell a vehicle with problems people will know. You need to keep a great reputation to stay open in these small towns, and we have a good one. Our Google reviews, Facebook reviews and even Car Gurus are all positive. We strive to keep customers happy and that is a big part of the reason we built our state of the art Service Center. So we can offer piece of mind after a purchase of a vehicle. As another added bonus, we offer a discounted labor rate for anyone who purchases a vehicle from us. That is huge when you want to do some customizing right down the road!

Custom Trucks from the Ultimate Rides Lift Center

The vehicles at Ultimate Rides have more going for them than simply being free of rust. They also feature a number of custom modifications, all from our team. You’ll even have the ability to customize any vehicle further when you buy from us. Just let us know what kind of upgrades you’re looking for and our team will make it happen. You can decide if you’d rather finance the cost of this work along with your truck, or pay for it upfront. These options make it more affordable for customers, so choose whichever way works better for you! Once our team finishes, we’ll have the truck ready for you to drive! We offer the best work around, so we can’t wait to show it off to you.

How Rust Forms, and How to Avoid It

Rust forms through a process called corrosion, which occurs when three specific factors come together. The scientific terms for these factors are anodes, cathodes and electrolytes. What you need to know is that when an exposed metal on your vehicle (acting as both anode and cathode) comes into contact with water (or any other electrolyte), rust can form.

There are some things out there that can make corrosion happen more readily. This includes salt, which as we know is prevalent on roads throughout much of the United States. Your vehicle’s coat of paint is meant to protect from rust, and will usually do a good job until that paint starts to chip or fade over time. Keep an eye out for areas of rust around chipped paint. You’ll also want to check your engine, wheel wells, and undercarriage, as these can be common trouble spots.

Preventing Rust 101

The main thing you can do to prevent rest is to take good care of your vehicle. Regular maintenance is a must. If you see your coat of paint starting to wear or chip, make sure to contact someone about applying a touch-up or even a completely new coat. Keeping your truck clean is important for your paint’s health. If you want to prevent rust in the long-run, regular trips to the car wash can be helpful. Be sure to choose a wash that gets the underside of your vehicle, or you’ll have to wash that area yourself.

Does your vehicle see more exposure to salt, water, or other elements that may cause rust? You’ll want to look into products that you can apply to vulnerable areas that will apply a seal on the surface to defend from corrosion. They range in price, but make sure to read up on customer reviews to get something that actually works instead of wasting your money.
