Just took delivery on a brand new F-150 XLT Sport 5.0
Wondering what type of undercoating or rust proofing ya'll would recommend?
What are your experiences with the different options?

2004 Black Marauder: #2237 Born on 4/1/2004
Eaton Swapped and a bunch of other goodies!
None, the body is all aluminum.
2004 SB #2150 of 3214 Moonroof, Heated Seats and 6 CD Changer. Non OEM Mufflers and 32,XXX miles and counting.
Fluid film seems to be the best option.
Aluminum will oxidize, particularly when exposed to magnesium chloride. And there's still a steel frame under there.
"No one is useless if they can still be used as a bad example." ~ SSgt. Miller.
"Loud pipes lose rights."
I never believed in undercoating newer vehicles, as the manufacturers usually spray on a coating where needed to meet their 100,000 mile body/frame warranties.
Having said that, the next new pick-up that I buy is going to immediately get a set of these:
