Damn Straight! Most of the salt they use onthe roads these days is magnesium chloride. Which will dissolve the aluminum, plastics, and steel cars and sleds are made from these days! I for one won't ride ditches due to that fact and won't use an open trailer even with a salt shield and cover either, because you can watch the sled dissolve in two or three years if you do!
I agree.
They should have delivered the sled via teleport.
I won't even ride mine on the snow because I don't want to run the idler wheel bearings in that cold environment.
