Anyone get their car out of winter storage yet?

Temps hit 60+ today, calling for even warmer this week. Anyone considering taking their car out yet? (For those of us in the winter climates ) Know some are itching for warmer temps to take the Camaro or other ride out.

You store your lifted Wrangler? That seems silly.

Mine is still on jack stands. Its in the high 60 to low 70s this week. I want to take the girl down, but I have some Solo High Flow cats that will get here soon so I will probably just leave her up there until I get it installed. Plus I would like the sand and the salt to be washed off the road with a few good rain storms.

Ah... I don't store mine per se. It just sits in the garage all winter. I still drive it when I can. Never gone more than 5-6 weeks without driving it.

MS3DALE.... you need to drive it to begin with to actually say you get it out!

I have been waiting to get mine out but i am gonna wait a month or so till it rains and washes the gravel and salt off the roads cause they put it on thick. Plus i have a bunch of parts stocked up over winter for mods for a month or so...

This is usually an issue around here as well,but this Winter as been so mild,we've only had a few little storms with very little snow,so theres not really much on the roads.
