why would you paint that?

Because of the visible rust, looks tacky on a finely detailed truck. I can't see mine anymore after the rear end drop, but when it was higher I hated seeing the rust on it.

I need to crawl under my truck with a hose someday and get myself all dirty and clean out the underside.

Yeah the surface rust won't hurt anything, it just looks bad to me on a finely detailed truck that's lifted. But that's just me.
