7. Ah, yes. "Michigan cancer" is what my Dad used to call it.
He was an auto body repairman and made his living off the stuff. It is not cheap to repair and tends to recur.

I thought that most states have limited the amount of salt that they spread on the roads in the winter, and that the cancer was more rare than it used to be.

You might enjoy a song named "Rusty Chevrolet" by Da Yoopers, made up of residents of the U.P. of Michigan. They're the ones that put out that "up north" hit "Second Week of Deer Camp."
