I test drove a sprinter camper recently for fun, and was amazed at how
rusted out the thing was.  It was a 2004 that had lived in texas for a
few years, I guess.   Had way more rust than my 85 vanagon.   Rusty
door hinges, chipped paint, UV-faded plastic bumpers etc.  I thought
rustproofing technology had improved over the last 20 years...?
