There shouldn't be that much rust on a 9 year old frame . I'd be making a few phone calls to the Ford dealership to see what they have to say about it.

I know Toyota came good on the frames of their early 90s trucks because of rusting frames. In fact the guy that lives across the street from me received $17 000 from Toyota to put towards a new vehicle because of rotting frame problems they had.

We had a 99 Ranger in the shop last week that had the same problem.The rear spring hangers were rusted completely off and you could put your hand right through the right rear frame rail.
