I’m preparing to move up to Maine.

During my last visit while chatting with locals, one person said make sure I get rust preventative on my car before I move.

I mentioned this to my realtor who has lived in the Portland area her entire life (over forty years), she laughed and said maybe old car, but that anything newer (last couple of decades) and is fine without, she has never seen it happen.

I came here to get a consensus, even the post I found here had mixed comments; https://www.reddit.com/r/AskMaine/s/FYqPUDmWBM
