Recently fell in love with Saab 9-7x, it uses the same platform as Trailblazer, Envoy, Rainer, etc.
Pics below are sent by a private seller I'm in touch with. I have no experience with GM and framed SUV, how does this rust looking for a 2009 vehicle in Ohio? Acceptable or I should walk away?

The frame got some flavor - mostly looks like surface rust, one spot around the frame under the engine has more rust, but the frame is still holding. Rear trailer arm brackets are start getting crusty, but so far the trailer arm still holding without issue.
So how would you stop the rust in track and prevent further degradation? I heard Eastwood product are good, so I did some resarch. It seems like Rust converter + Rust Encapsulator should be a good combo to stable current rust and stop future rust, but what about frame interior? And do I need to paint over the frame after I encapsulating the exterior?
Open to your suggestions!
