In his case it was not rusting, just the bear metal.
I guess if you drive every day it keeps the metal sand blasted clean so that rust does not built up.
So it has nothing to do with were you are from, rather how much you drive and if you have the step bars.

I am not sure I buy that?? I am going to wash and detail my truck today, so I will look hard at mine and see what I find. My truck has only seen one winter, but they use enough "magnesium chloride" on the streets for road deicer to see rust on bear metal. I will take pictures of what I find.
