That's the thing, I'm not driving through anything! The weather has been great in NY, I can't even remember the last time it rained. This is why I'm so surprised in the legnth of time it took for the rubber to crack. Luckily I just rebuilt the CV joints and replaced the boots in April, those are holding up just great. Thank you all for your suggestions, I'll just keep an eye on everything and if worse comes to worse-I'll put the poly boots on.
