I had my euro guy replace my rear struts. He saw some rust near where the struts mount to the body. I've just done a lot of work on it and would rather roll the dice for another 2-3 years. he applied some sort of liquid film that is supposed to buy some time. I really like this car and I frankly don't like any cars I can afford.
In 2026-29 if we are buying a new daily diver that does high mileage commute is there a reason to get anything other than an EV?
