Right now there's a bill in the Texas State Legislature to get rid of state inspections altogether. It passed the state senate back in May and right now it's sitting in the House to get voted on..................eventually?

I've seen higher speed limits in other places I've been too, though.

My town in Illinois uses beat juice mixed with salt so it's not as bad.

You see, I do this thing called "wash" my car every so often. That typically gets rid of any salt.

I can't tell if you are baiting or just this stupid. Summer tires actually offer superior performance in rain and wet driving conditions over all season tires. Literally the only reason most people in winterless areas like Phoenix and Houston still use all season is because they last longer than summer tires, are cheaper, and they drive so slow that summer tires won't make a noticeable difference.

No one will respond because no one lives there except for me but North Dakota doesn't use salt. It gets so cold that salt is ineffective and they use sand for traction instead.

Also, the winter isn't like "Let's build a snow man" weather it's "You will die if you go outside for more than 20 minutes" weather. Exhaust from cars lingers and becomes blinding, your car engine needs to be plugged in to start and everyone keep emergency blankets in their cars.

It's a weird place

Tundra. I'm sure they still use tons of salt in like November and March though.

This actually works, oil leak in my focus valve cover coated the underside of my car for years. 250,000 miles and its just start to get a hint of fender rust despite going through 17 PA winters.

You can just spray your used oil right onto the undercarriage after you drain it. Hillbilly undercoating.

I put my car on stands, fill a harbor freight paint gun with used oil, and coat the underside. It's kind of a pain in the ass because of how the gun is gravity fed and the weird angles i have to get at with the car being only 2 feet off the ground, but it's better than rot. If I wasn't poor I could pay a shop to do it.

In the last couple years they switched from rock salt to brine, which is the absolute worst because it's like driving your car through the fucking ocean. There's no crack or crevice it cannot reach. I know in my heart there's some hidden spot the brine finds its way into that's slowly rotting and I won't find out until it's too late.

VT reporting, our winter don't get as cold, but that means wet snow and wet rocksalt/brine. After a good snow storm, it is not uncommon to see cars with salt built up on the body. Everyone who wants their car to last more than a couple of winters here either has it permanently undercoated or doesn't drive it for 6 months
