Oiling it makes GIANT mess. It will drip oil for weeks after being applied and for it to really be proactive, it needs to be done a couple of times before each winter.
I suggest thoroughly washing the underside(power washing) and letting it DRY.
Then get a bunch of cans of Fluid Film with the long tubes. Stuff the tubes EVERYWHERE(doors cab corners, inner fenders, un in the wheel wells, bed cross members etc.) makes sure it RUNS out. It sets up in about 48 hours. Then you also want to spray the ENTIRE underside of the truck(body, frame, gas tanks,etc) To do a full-size truck, you would need at least a 6 pack of spray cans and about a quart-2 quarts to THOROUGHLY do the underside. And that should touched up once a year
