You have 1996 Buick in upstate NY and it isn't rusted out yet!? Was it stored in a barn?

It spent a lot of time in Ohio and only has about 100k miles. We had it up on a lift the other day and the mechanic was amazed at how good the undercarriage was. My son sprayed the bottom with WD-40 which will hopefully protect it from road salt.

We are plugged in a bit to networks that bring cars up from down south, there is a place in Binghamton that sells police cars (and other cars) from southern Pennsylvania which is already a much better environment.

I highly recommend using Fluid Film instead of WD-40. It will coat better and last a lot longer (you'll still have to put it on once a year).
The WD-40 is already gone.
