    Hello everyone,

    It's been a while since my last post! Anyway, I have a question you all may be able to answer for me. I'm looking to move to Middle TN in the near future and wanted to ask, is rust a problem in TN? I've looked around for some info but haven't found a solid answer (terrible rust pun lol). Sorry if it seems like a stupid question, I suffer from anxiety so I tend to overly worry about certain things haha. I figured you all would be able to help me out, thanks in advance!

    Tennessee is not a rust bucket state.

    Moved from MI to TN last year and I can tell you will certainty. You won't have rust issues if you care for your truck. The only rust buckets around here are transplants like mine. Hail/sun/tornado damage are more likely that or rear ending someone if its raining. Because, if its raining everyone else is driving 15-20mph below normal speeds (I've yet to figure this one out).

    Ah, that’s great to hear! I have a friend who lives in MI haha. Mine has a little rust but nothing major, I hope to get it fixed soon. I can definitely vouch on the hail, we had some down here in Louisiana which was weird, did a little damage to my truck but nothing really noticeable. Lol it’s the same here! Little bit of rain and everyone freaks out! Definitely a interesting phenomenon lol. Thank you for the reply!
