The same I noticed in CO. the yrs. I lived there zero salt on roads then but lots of cinders on the roads and broken windshields to repair. But no rust on original CO. cars at all.

My 96 came from Washington state and is/was rust free. It is in North Carolina now, surrounded by saltwater (island). Only a matter of time.
What is that overload leaf/anti axlewrap thing? For hauling load or towing?
