Plastic won't rust.

So I guess that's good?

Payne is cheap builder grade Carrier

You mean it's low quality? What would be a better brand?

My air conditioner is about 13 years old. The guy suggested I should
replace the inside unit and the outside condensor (3 ton) for $3,000
total.
It will be Payne. Is this reasonable?

You might check into the ratings done by Consumer Reports for the best
brands, but keep in mind that you can have the best of the best in
equipment, but if you have a bad install, you got junk.
