We don't have that problem on the Prairies where the humidity is
generally low. If I see a rusty car, it's almost certainly from
Vancouver or eastern Canada.

I'm glad they don't salt the roads here, or at least I am so far.
There's only been a few times where it got a little scary trying to
drive on the roads here.

all either AWD or 4WD, so that helps a lot in dealing with traction in
ice and snow at least.
