Temperature extreme affects the properties of material. Rubber items such as CV boots can crack when the temp drop below 0F.
You are correct, we don't have to worry about corrosion or harsh winters. On the other hand further North the summer temperatures are much cooler. Our Texas summers are in the 90s in June and the rest of the summer temperatures are often over 100. And Summer temperatures last longer. The forecast is 90 for the next week. The comparison may not equal out but Texas has extremes as well.
