Hi there, hoping someone can help me out.

I'm looking at a truck that's been driven in Indiana and Minnesota and was wondering if they use salt on the highways in the Winter in those states.

thanks

 

Yes to both

 

Indiana for sure!

 

minnesota for sure

 

I know they use salt in the twin cities, but not down where I live... (10 miles from the Iowa border)

 

Thanks for the great info.

Nothing beats local knowledge.

 

It snows there don't it?

 

What does that mean?

 

^x2....It snows in the mountain states, and I think they use calcium...not salt.

Beware, if you live in a state that uses both, rust will be accelerated, I am seeing a lot more rust lately, especially brake/fuel lines, and Maine uses both.

 

If it snows, they use SOMETHING that will eat your frame, whether they call it salt, mag-chloride, or something else - it's gonna rust your shizzy.

 

the calcium stuff, will NOT rust anything, unless salt is also used.
