We'll be driving our Camaro all winter too. We don't get a lot of snow here though. When it snows, wife and I will carpool in my truck.
Thanks Rolla! I'll probably end up with a touring bike myself at some point. I think it's inevitable.

Winter storage? What's that?

I drive mine all year long, though I will admit I try avoid any wet gross winter days. I only drive on nice days or if I absolutely have to.

To all our friends in the deep south. FYI
The main reason we park our cars in Nov. usually weeks before the snow fall, is because when the evening temps. drop below freezing the towns start spreading salt on the roads to prevent ice formation on the roads.
We won't bring them out until we have had a good all day rain in the spring to wash all that salt off the roads.

Its not the snow we fear , its the salt.

I like it. More is better and safer.

4 of them are on the lower control arm to keep the suspension loaded. The other two are there just incase the ones in the front slipped. I am going to be going under the car today and tomorrow to start some clean up on the underbody so I definitely feel a lot safer having more of them holding it up.

No snow yet but it's time.

:( Washed it last night with the freakish 54 degree temps. 30's by next week. I got it done and still have all my fingernails! Time to start re-modding the 2013 with my parts from the 2010. 568 miles on the clock.

I put in a little Hot Dog from Modine a couple years back and it is awesome; comfy and dry all winter for the bike and car.

I know! I never realized how much went into winterizing a car!
