Hello Tim. Actually, the vehicle was registered in PA for 3 years. I bought it in Virginia, where I live and have had it for 2 years. I just thought that when I bought a 'Mercedes', I was buying a vehicle a cut above my Ford. But, it seems that Mercedes doesn't have any better technology for preventing body/frame rust than my Ford.

On one of the pictures the only rust I can see is on the exhaust bolt? Have you ever seen an exhaust system bolt older than say two days that was not rusted?

Have you looked under any other 5 year old PA cars? I'd be surprised if they did not show the same signs of minor surface rust.
