Get some PVC piping and create a grid out of it with pin holes spaced along
the top. Lay it on the driveway or in the garage (if it has a water drain)
and hook it up to the hot water heater. When you get home from driving on
the salted road just park on top of the grid and turn on the water to
provide a fresh water rinse to the undercarriage. You may want a purge
valve so when you're done you can remove any water in the grid to keep it
from freezing.
Or you could just drive your "significant other's" car instead :p

Just wondering. If you had no coice about driving on salted roads,
what are the best precautions? Some I know of are: washing the car regularily,
and getting the bottom rust proofed with spray on tar or rubber stuff. Any
other suggestions?
