I have a lot of rust to fix, has anyone had experience fixing rust on these trucks, if so, what did it cost you?

Is it worth my time to fix all of these issues? The truck only has 69k Miles on it.

Looks identical to mine, except mine might be a tad worse in that drivers side front qtr. I blame the running boards for holding crap next to the body in crappy weather. I'm in MN though, and it's typical to have this rust on older vehicles. I'm nearing 160k though, so that is a bit less than you.

I think the cheaper option is to replace the panels, rather than repair the heavily rusted ones. Cost on that though, I am not sure. Otherwise, find an Aspen at the wrecking yard and make a multi colored Aspen for each panel you find nice! I thought about doing this for giggles.

 

I traded in my 08 Aspen after putting thousands into it... I know not smart financially. But we have a bigger family and needed the Suburban space. So whoever got mine from the dealer in Muskegon MI for a very low price you are a lucky son of a gun parts and repairs and maintenance wise. But it did have a lot of rust. I found a guy on Craigslist that did a good job but it was a lot of stuff like only one door went untouched. Spent around 800 or so total maybe less, paint materials and time. But I'm sure that's not what most official places would have charged.
