Can you drive a car 6 hours if it needs a new wheel bearing and ball joint?

Extended exposure to sun can damage the paint - that's why cars are worth more if they're kept in a garage. And depending on where you live and what kind of crap may make its way into your rain, I suppose it could be harmful as well. So can the salt from the roads in the winter.

Paint job?

I live near the Beach and all the cars around this area rust faster. The paint jobs take murder when we have a Hurricane and you have to leave your vehicle out-side. If you even drive to the beach your wind-shield will be cruddy when you get ready to come home. It's in our air here. They use to tell us not to get silver cars either because the paint jobs didn't last as long. I believe now they have really improved on that.
