I'm not, because money is too tight at the moment, and I usually get the hose out every two weeks during the gritting season, and give the undercarriage a good jet wash to get any rotten (pardon the pun) grit off the chassis.
You really should get your undercarriage rust proofed though, because unless you have time to be jet washing the undercarriage like I do, it will rot.
In fact, I know somebody in Canada who didn't rust proof his '91 Ford F250, and it is getting a whole new body now because the floor pans and sills rotted to nothing - Literally!
It isn't too expensive to rust proof your undercarriage, especially if you buy a tub of it and apply it yourself, but as I say, I still can't afford it myself.
Of course, you could just put your car away for the snow season and be safer all round, but in the real world none of us can really go without transport for over two months.
