subsince77 Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Looking around the country for a newer Outback. Seem to be some fairly good deals in the Portland area. Is Oregon a salt/rust problem state? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suba9792 Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 no salt, no rust. Unless of course you don't wax your car then yeah rust will set in. People say cars on the coast get real rusty, but they still are not nearly as bad as ones in the rust belt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goobysoobs Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Yeah PNW is a pretty good place to get a soob, they are cheaper on average and the bodies tend to be in better shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjw Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Anything on the Oregon coast thats more than a few years old, needs to be looked at Very closely. I've seen coastal cars and trucks that were as bad as any rust belt car. Usually, thou, they are a few years old. Kinda like our subi's. It may still be safe to buy a vehicle out of the Seattle area. But, those days are numbered. Salt is being used up there every year now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subsince77 Posted February 22, 2011 Author Share Posted February 22, 2011 Thanks for the replies. We are looking all over, but have always wanted to go to the PNW anyway. Would be a nice trip if the price was very right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
