My father's 96 is in my back yard. It has a real back bumper. Chrome, and no rust yet. As for the rust of the, I mean the rest of the truck, the frame has rotted so thin on the drivers side, that it has broken. The drivers floor is full of holes, the drivers front cab mount is gone. The box was toast. Went out to start it up last spring, and I think she turned a bearing. Why I keep it is beyond me. If my father were alive, he would have junked it. But yes it's pretty thin, the 2013 bumper that is. It is starting to rust around the back up sensor holes, and the front facing corners. The front bumper has a couple rock chips starting to bubble. I was going to trade when it was paid off, but I have been in a new truck, with a payment, since 1991, and decided to keep this one. If I had have thought farther ahead, I would have kept her oiled up.
