Regardless of salt, dodge cars and trucks seem to rust faster than the rest. Even 4-5 year old dodge trucks look clapped out and have rust around the wheel openings. I would never own one. The salt and chloride is brutal.
Here's why our cars are rusty piles.

that is because the metal that was used was from china......hopefully the US can supply the metal for new cars....
Did that one winter back when I was young and stupid, not realizing the best way to get rid of ice was to move away from it.
It worked, but, MAN was it messy once you got things thawing. That stuff got everywhere.
it does but you don't need much and it's clean dirt which is easier to clean than grinding off the rust on your car and easier on the feet than walking on a piece of salt when you are in your socks that got dragged into the house
True.
Salt is also bad for the paws of your 4 legged friends, both burning the pads of the woofers and ingesting the lick/grooming of the meowers.
My eventual workaround was we had originally surfaced the driveway in a local grey stonedust, in the fall wed grab 3 or 4 tons and put it inside. Spread it during the winter, got traction and heated in the sun for melting. Come spring you had a fresh top off of dust for appearances
in lake placid NY they are trying to cut back on the slat use because its raising the lake salt levels too high.. so it actually pollutes in a way...
