I have a theory on rusty TJs

I can’t tell if it is just because I own a 1998 Sahara, but I feel like the Sahara edition is more prone to frame and body rust. It is Ike the trim package holds the water in.

It's a Lee Iacocca thing is my conspiracy theory.
He guided the Hyundai/ Kia launch as "disposable cars". Now look where they are.
Where's Chrysler?

Rust is just rust but when it sees the name Sahara it feels it need to prove itself as such and laughs at the desert while doing so.

I think the original owner sunk my Jeep at the bottom of Atlantis for a coupe of years........ My fun project next winter are new floor pans and torque boxes. My fiancé was complaining that her feet were getting sooo hot. I was thinking she was exaggerating until I lifted the carpet and could see the asphalt . This winter is frame work. I need new rear upper coil spring brackets welded in and then need to clean out the frame the best as possible to coat the inside. I already have safe T caps on the rear control arms, so I want to avoid more caps haha.

Find a Colorado Jeep, you’ll be happy you did . Unless it was like my 1969 Commando that had shag carpet in it and we had to custom build new floor pans... and a lot of other stuff.
