[DML] More thoughts on rust

["smileksr" <michaelbarth@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am the guy who has aroused several responses by stating that I 
have "no fear" by driving my car in the winter.

About a dozen responses came in, all of which centered on rust.

My question is this: Is the Delorean more prone to rust than any 
other car?  Is the frame made of a different kind of steel or 
something that rusts more quickly?

If so, then I will change my winter driving habits.  But if not, 
then why are people so concerned about their Delorean rusting, more 
than their "winter car" that they subject to the salty conditions?  
It's not like we are driving a $100K car here, folks.  The Delorean 
is not irreplaceable.  Mine was the same price as a new honda.  I 
guess my thinking is, I will treat it the same and enjoy it year-
round.  I don't know...I can see both sides of the argument, because 
there are only so many of them (Deloreans, that is), and there will 
always be hondas.

But if the Delorean frame is somehow more prone to rust, then I'm 
definitely concerned about my winter driving habits.

Let me know...Mike #6528 (I think?)
