I live 3 miles from the ocean and just had a paint can bottom rust and started leaking in my garage on a shelf.,bare metal is bad here,we have salt in the morning dew here.
Not saying they don't. But inland a mile and you won't see rust. But I did infer to buy one with zero rust from wherever it is found. Life is too short to spend a single day dealing with rust.
I was in Arizona last summer(Williams)I was just sitting on a bench in town watching all these old vehicles drive by with zero rust.the paint was baked off of them but they were rust free!
Did you make the 90 miles to Winslow to watch for the girl driving the flatbed Ford?

That describes my Jeep exactly.
What you didn’t see was the interior fabric and every plastic part was decomposed due to the heat.
Honestly I don't think I could stand living somewhere with salt on the roads. As much as I love vehicles I'd never want to go anywhere in the Winter, I couldn't bear to watch my old vehicles disintegrate like that.. I'd probably have to buy beaters for Winter driving.
Been there lots,I love it out west,I go any chance I get,my asthma loves the dry climate,
It’s yellow…
Yellow Jeeps are cool!
2003 TJ, 6 Cyl, 5 speed, 90K miles, Florida only. Reaching into those holes in the frame, I don't feel any rust. I just know about a "rust free" coastal Florida Jeep that's 23 years old. Seems to run ok and I plugged an OBD scanner in that showed no codes. Opinions?
Nope, you can find cleaner ones, trust me.
It's not worth settling for less. In this economy it's a buyers market.

Stay away from Phoenix, then. I just saw on the news Phoenix air quality is rated 4th worst in the country. That's a shame. This place used to be nice.
