I’ve owned it for almost 22 years now ( bought it in October 1998 ) and I took pretty good care of it when it was my daily driver. It did see some winter roads and salt, but was frequently washed soon after the snow melted.
Actually, most of the time I have owned it, I have at least had a carport to put it in. Even the 11 years it was in the lumber barn, it was mostly covered by a roof.
