Brake lines on trucks DO go bad.

Stainless line, rock guard and fittings. All prebent and fits in all the factory clips. It doesn't get much quicker and I couldn't bend it as well by hand.

You Northerners!! man the Rust- I was trying to Help a lady across the cove from us by changing her flat. Her husband bought her a Chicago Truck.
Couldn't get the damn Spare off truck! Chevy Avalanche. Fought that thing for 30 Minutes, gave up and used my own spare to get her to repair shop.
Cable holding spare was rusted to chit.

Yeah that actually doesn't look that bad to me. I am sure SB would agree. It is pretty hard to comprehend exactly how corrosive NH is on vehicles. The amount of chemicals we use on the road is nothing short of staggering. My 2014 F350 is already showing some spots here and there, and I wash it religiously in the winter.
Even just a couple of hours south of here in Massachusetts the cars are surprisingly less rusty. After 10 years on a pickup truck around here it is time to unload it because it is going to really start costing money to keep on the road. My torches are one of the most used tools in this shop.

Yup. 1 State down, MA, has a life expectancy of 2-4yrs longer than us, NH.
1 State down from there, RI, gets another few years.
Get south of there, and life is more of a breeze, unless you dip it in salt water dropping boats or wanting to be like a commercial and drive your truck / jeep on an ocean beach.
The same pissants, up here, that complain about or High Department not treating the roads more are the same one's who complain about how fast their cars rust out.
Many (not all) places farther North than us, use more sand on snowy roads and less salt. Their vehicles stay nicer longer.

When I was up in Canada snowmobiling a few years back, it was interesting to see how they did it. Everything had studded tires (by law), they plowed the roads but that was it, no chemicals used at all. They were icy, but people didn't have any trouble because of the studded tires. The vehicles appeared to be much cleaner than ours. I could barely walk down the sidewalks without falling on my a$$ though.
