[net.auto] Is rusty jones worth it?

mjb (12/16/82)

A friend of mine is about to buy a new Nissan Sentra, and is considering
the Rusty Jones protection offered by the dealer. Having no basis for advising
in such matters, I am passing the question to the net: is it worth it?	We live
in RI and encounter a fair amount of salt on the roads. She is not considering
the exterior or upholstery protection, only the one where they blow the stuff
into the body panels. Is drilling the holes for that a problem? One other note:
she will probably own the car for a long time (she is unloading a mazda she
drove for 8 years). Please mail replies to
