They also use a lot of sand up there, more than salt. Come spring , I put a oscillating sprinkler under it for a hour or so. You wouldn’t believe the crap that comes out. Been using Fluid Film the last few years as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My other Jeep has a unlimited car wash plan. It sometimes gets washed 3 times a week. I like to keep them clean and try to keep them for ten years or more. I fucking hate rust. It was the main reason I sold my H3. Once the bottom of the doors start getting the itch, I start looking for a replacement. I drive the 08 up north in the winter for this reason.

The last 2 vehicles I sold were running great, But fucking rusting right apart. Pissed me off. My 2 wheel drive trucks don't get driven in the winter ( they are employee trucks) except for once a week on dry sunny days. The 4 wheelers I will wash once a week and the 06 f-350 still has cancer.
