Can't agree with that. Salt plays havoc with the underside mechanical components no matter how how try to look after it. Well, unless you have a hoist and and a pressure washer and can thoroughly wash the underside weekly.
My car has never been winter driven in all its 16 years. It still looks new underneath and I have yet to encounter a seized fastener. Not so with my 10 year old, winter-driven truck.
