'99 ML430 Rust

Hello Gang,

After 2 years of ownership, I decided to crawl under the truck today. I was disheartened to see the amount of rust on the underside of this vehicle. The outside is in excellent shape with no signs of rust, so I was surprised. It was previously owned for three years in Pennsylvania, so I image the salted roads in the winter took its toll. Here are some pictures of the problem http://www.pbase.com/worldwide137/mercedes If anyone can let me know if this amount of rust is considered normal or tell me what I should do to keep it from spreading, I would really appreciate it. I'm thinking about putting some naval gel on it but am open to other ideas. -Norm
