OK, trying to 'plan ahead' for next year, I wanted to buy up a bunch of 
rock salt (or equivalent) for next winter now that it will be going on 
sale.

What I wanted to know, does anyone know which kind of this type of product 
does the least damage to the spreading vehicle?

Let me explain.  It seems that there are about 40 different type of 
products that do what rock salt does.  Many have reasons as to why they 
are the 'best."

What I am most concerned with (besides actually melting ice) is which is 
the least corrosive to the vehicles.  I don't' care about 'environmentally 
sensitivity' as I don't spread that much 
of it around. 

Does anyone know of such a product.  Oh, if it was safe for pets feet, 
that would be a huge plus.

TIA.
