Hehe, is all good- but I figured all DSM's in that area would have rust. Not just the talons.
Yeah, but he said they didn't get the Eclipse, so most likely all of the Eclipses up there were imported and probably then cared for. At least that's the most logical thought flow that I see.
But in all honesty, until you get south of, say, Iowa, you're going to see the same rust on these cars. My car was a Minnesota car for all 13 years, and while it runs like clockwork, god help me every time I have to change the simplest thing on it (that hasn't been doused by oil from the valve cover), because at least one bolt is going to break and need to be drilled out. Hell, I had the bolt that attaches the front passenger strut to the lateral arm twist off on me this past winter because it had seized inside that bushing, and that's a pretty thick bolt. That right there should be motivation enough to look further south for these cars.
