They salt around here hardcore too, my truck is real rusty on the underside. Nothing is worse then when salt is piled on the road for no reason whatsoever, maybe it gives the plows something to do??? either way its lame

Rust

I was in Detroit many years back while delivering a modified BMW from a company I worked for in California to Car and Driver magazine for a road test article.

I saw NO foreign cars while I was there (not surprised) and some of the Detroit iron I did see were sooo rotted out I could see into the trunks through the fenders.

We don't use salt here in Nevada, we use red sand.
