I think the thing I appreciate most, or what makes me favor faux-tina, is the metal is still protected.

What I like is the naturally weathered - where the dings and dents, and wear are all part of the history of the truck.

True. I am in Phoenix and my truck never sees rain or salt so it is frozen in time. It would be different living in other parts of the country where the rust will keep going.
