From what I've seen that saltwater can do to aluminum on cats and outboard motors, what do you think will happen to the new F150 Ford Pick-up Trucks that have aluminum body panels? Will winter road salt and ocean seaspray eat these trucks alive? What could Ford have done to them to protect them over time? Is there any "new" protection technology that's transferable to cat tramp frames, pylons, and spars?
