Grit dog,

Interesting that you claim such great weather in the PNW USA and never mention they very high number of days of rain and altitude highway travel for so many mandating chains on in winter. Yes, we have been there many times so don't make stupid statements.

Putting it to a proper perspective: There ins't squat for the percentage of the USA population that live in the PNW. Maybe 20 million people out of the 330,000,000 that live in the USA and yet you think like so many out there that what works where you live will work with ~7% of the nation's population can speak for and tell the other 93% of the nation's population what's best. Some news for you: It ain't squat in actual reality! There's a reason and/or reasons why only ~7% of the USA population chooses to live in the PNW! The cropped tail trying to wag the dog!

Don't think I ever claimed great weather, actually it s ucks most of the year, snow is heavy wet and rotten, hence the chain laws all the time. I believe I said it is easier on vehicles than other climates. Just my opinion being kind of a car nut and observing cross country.
And we don't choose to live here, got transferred here a half dozen years ago and so happens we are still here, tied to my job ya know.
I grew up in the Midwest, and I'll take washing the moss off my trailer once a year over fenders flapping in the breeze, rusted up brakes and rusted out trailer hitches, as long as I have the choice. Maybe I wasn't clear but it was my off handed reccomendation that this is in general a good place for used cars and "quality" is subjective.
