True stainless is great but their is some really mediocre stainless out there. I put stainless lower body panels on a Yukon and had to coat it with Amsoil metal protectant every winter to keep rust off. I had a stainless prop on an Omc sterndrive that had to have rust scoured off regularly as well. I do live in the rust belt area though. So whatever your preference it all seems to require care.
