Interesting you reply to
Interesting you reply to comments only that make your case. For instance, you mention salt being normal in Northern states as being why it is import to mention salt. But you skip the part when I mention dusty roads. Which exists in all 50 states - not just northern states. You agree with me the dust effects ICE vehicles more than BEV due to oil, intake filtering, etc. But you don't acknowledge it.
You agree with me that Local dealerships want you to replace much more frequently than manufactures. Yet you also avoid the comment.
I believe you are trying to be fair - But I think your biases are affecting you more than you know. I give you the last word.
