And you seem oblivious to the fact that a large amount of the population in Texas does not live close to the Gulf of Mexico.
As a 28 year resident of the DFW metroplex, I am always amazed by the rust free condition of old cars that have been in this area since they were new.
No salt, and just like the vast majority of the state, no issues with "blowing salty air" here.
And, of course, there is not a spec of rust on my 2008 Ram.
