True, no place is immune from rust. However, Arizona vehicles are popular for a reason. I currently have an '81 Westy, an '85 Ford Econoline, and a '73 motor home. None has any problem with rust. It isn't just salt that rusts cars. It is also rain and high humidity. We get little rain and have very low humidity. I commonly see '60s and '70s vintage vehicles on the road with no rust.
