I believe they're using that here and gravel elsewhere.

Glad I am in NC for school. No snow for me!

It will rot. But it's not going to happen in a month. I live in Michigan. I know first hand what salt will do. This is why the mustangs get parked before the snow falls and they don't come out until mid/late April once it has poured rain a ton to wash the roads off.

My cars been through quite a few winters here and if you just wash it off in a reasonable about of time it won't do anything. My car still looks great underneath and it has 103,xxx miles!

Any complaints? We've had almost no snow in upstate NY (~25" vs ~100" last year at this time) so they haven't used it much.

I'm surprised Syracuse didn't have a lot of snow. I graduated from SU a few years back and snow was just a normal thing. The city is typically pretty prepared. But my friends car got messed up, he never washed it either so that didn't help.

Hey I'm an '09 grad, Go 'Cuse! Having grown up 10 miles north of there, this winter has been nothing. Think I've driven twice when there was snow on the roads. I miss purposefully fish tailing all the turns in the winter

They use a spray form of de-icer here as well. I have been stopping at the hand spray carwash for a power rinse to take the film off of my mustang each week. I have noticed the drippings from the car have etched my garage floor after only 1 winter.

Doing well this year in bball. Finally. I'm pretty excited.

And the winter roads sucked. I didn't have my car until after school so it never saw Syracuse winters. I usually woke up and there was snow but nothing on the roads haha.

Same here. I think it would be brutal. Where you a Management grad?
