Same. Salt and sand from late November to mid March around here. Used to start earlier, but climate change has pushed that back a bit. Still, most rust repair I’ve had to do on a car is a fender, muffler, and headers. So I don’t buy it as a reason to let a car go at 150k. You should easily get another 50-150k out of a decent car.
Lawn. I have a lawn. Just grass. Takes water and space. Makes a little O2 and that’s it.
FWIW, I’m trying to get rid of it. Plans to build a solar array in the back yard, cover the patio with a greenhouse that connects the house to the garage, side yard is going to be raised planters, and the front is going to be mostly wildflowers with some small pathways and nooks for reading and relaxing. I’d like to get it to the point where I can “mow” the whole property with just a string trimmer.
