**** that. Not only is that a lame idea, but the my 240 has been in new england, middlesex county, to be exact, it's entire life. 26 years and 250,000 miles. Yeah, it's damn rusty, but that's without any apparent rust treatment at all. I'm fixing it and then you just gotta stay on top of it.
Just be prepared to deal with rust in the summer, if you stay on top of it, it won't be a problem. I've heard winter tires help a lot, carry sand, and I'm carrying chains.
