Being from the Northwest, I can't comment from direct experience since they sand roads here and temps don't drop as low as they will for you, but I can regurgitate what I've heard from others in more harsh climates.
Besides getting a good application (or three) of wax on the painted surfaces, wash as often as possible - at least a good rinsing once a week (wheel-wells, body drains, especially). Also, I've heard not to park in a heated garage, as that will accelerate rust growth. Covered, and garage parking is fine, just no heat.
Regards,
