I live in the Midwest (US) and all I see is cars rotting. Cars under 5 years where the owner doesn't take care of the paint (wash/wax etc) and the wheel wells start to rust off. I even play a game with my kids where we watch for "Pavement Princess" trucks that have rust.
- VBprogrammer 4y agoI've had a good look around my local area and very few of the cars have any visible rust. We have a fairly mild climate in South East England but we do use salt on the roads in winter time. Of the two vehicles with any noticeable rust, one is a '05 Mercedes Sprinter, these seem to be predisposed to rust. The other was a T registered (1999) Land Rover Discovery but even that has obviously been modified for off-road use so it's hardly fair to include it. I wonder if this is climate related or US cars are not built with the same rust treatment.
