Putting mine away this weekend.

TooCool5 · 11-18-2010, 06:22 PM

Nope not parking mine this year at all. Last year there were too many clear dry road days to do that again. It was killng me to see my Camaro sit.
They no longer use sand on the roads in NE and after a few days the sodium chloride just dries off and dusts off of the road.

It's trying so hard to snow right now, spitting slush and snow and rain. Our temps are supposed to go down to single digits by Sunday night. ugh.
I've got a 4x4 mazda pickup that is my winter driver because our place starts looking like this around mid-dec.

What no snowmobile tracks. That snow is dying to get tracked up.

Mine got parked for winter on November 4th. This car was not built for winter!

maxpower5 · 11-18-2010, 06:41 PM

ill end up driving mine here and there throughout winter (not when there is salt down however) - so not too worried.
i'd definitely recommend sea foam in the gas tank. talked to too many people that use and love it.

I have a beater, but as soon as the sky and roads are clear I plan on going for a burn in both the camaro and on the bike, never really put away for good. Might put sta-bil in though just in case we get a blizzard.

Mine was a daily driver until I bought my wife a 2010 F150 4x4, she loves it. Now if it is windy, rainy, cold, snowy or a chance of any of those we take the truck.

The wife is driving a '01 Firebird and I'm in my '07 Ram 3500 4x4!

Thanx for all the feed back. We live in southern Mo. Mostly we get ice, so no driving the baby til springtime.

Will be getting parked in a steel building, coverd up, have to do the dryer sheet trick. And will put some sta-bil in and parking her till spring, have a jeep wrangler to get me where I need to go And even places I don't

Strokedhog · 11-18-2010, 09:13 PM

Just did full detail, oil change, ported throttle body, and will wait till first snow forcast and away it goes for the winter. Hell my car has never seen rain in the 18 months its lived with me, never mind the snow and ice. Cant wait for those first few warm March days though!

Silver Ice · 11-18-2010, 09:14 PM

Be storing mine soon

rtcat600man · 11-18-2010, 09:32 PM

Decided to show my winter ride too.

racingmasterken · 11-18-2010, 09:35 PM

I sadly put mine away 2 weeks ago. Had my baby since April and only 2441 KM's. Definantly not used and abused.
