Due to the influx of used vehicles of Canadian origin into the Midwest, I have a question that I've never considered before.
I spotted a used truck at a local dealer. However, I'm at a bit of a loss on this one, as CarFax claims that spent its entire life (so far) on the island of Newfoundland.
I would think that the climate there is fairly moderate due to the influence of the ocean.
My biggest concern is the overall condition of the roads (paved/unpaved), and the presence of salt. I would guess that they use a fraction of salt for de-icing on the roads as compared areas in the mainland of Canada.... but more due to the influence of salt from the ocean.
