why aren’t cars protected underneath? Why aren’t they enclosed in some kind of cowling or shield? Would that help to prevent damage and rust? Is there any way to enclose your car in a shield? Would it help anything?

Many new cars have shields that protect many parts. There are also shields on brake rotors, splash guards and more. Rust and corrosion is still an issue for those in the rust belt. Stuff is better, but still seems to be planned obsolescence. Cars used to be trash after 60,000 miles. Now an engine/transmission should last 200,000 miles with maintenance. I just lost a 20 year old truck to rust that was going to require a “frame off” repair.
