Dude you live in Florida...

Year round DD's anywhere that it snows get eaten up by salt in no time.

Anyway, today is pretty much the nice weather's last "hurrah" from the sound of it...around 70 today, then a high of 45 tomorrow. Yuck. I'm putting my car in the garage tonight, low's are supposed to be in the 20's for the next week after today, although I don't think it's supposed to snow... so #1 my car is loud enough I'm afraid I'll **** off the neighbors by letting it warm up and defrost the windows, and #2 I'm always afraid of icy spots. But it's mostly #1.

Living in florida can be worse. We are subject to salt year round near the beaches. The key is keeping the car clean underneath as well as the body.

My uncle was stationed in key west for 15 years and his truck still doesn't have any rust on it cause he washed it at least once a week while he was there.
