Is it common for 2003 Ford Escapes/Mazda Tributes to have rusting problems? What

abut reliability? My neighbor has an Escape that is practically made of rust now. My friend has one just a year newer that's completely fine. I'm looking at a Mazda Tribute, and I don't know if I should worry about rust or not.

I've also heard a lot of mechanical horror stories regarding the Escape, but I've never heard anything bad about a Mazda.

P.S. I live in the middle of NY, so there's a lot of snow and salt.
