I have rust in the rain channels on both sides of my '07 XLT. I'm expecting to have to take it to a body shop for the fix, and I want to do so ASAP so it doesn't spread.
My question is, is this area called the rain channel/gutter? How are they attached? Welded? Seems like a useless part to put on the truck unless it's for a rack or something. Just curious of the purpose, and if anyone else has seen this issue and its resolution.
Any idea of what the cost to fix would be? Assuming the rust isn't pervasive and is just surface.

Thanks!
