Damb Snow
Damb tired of the snow. Ours was almost gone, though the streets were white from all the salt, but it's snowing again! Received 2" last night, stopped for a few hours, and is snowing again. It's expected to snow for the next 4 or 5 days!
Just more setbacks to getting the car out. It stays covered in a heated garage until after a couple good rains to get the salt off the roads. They put salt down thick here. Good for clearing the ice and snow, bad for any metals.

I feel your pain. It keeps dumping snow 3" - 6" increments here in VA about every 2-4 days! So just as soon as I get the driveway cleared out, boom....get out the shovel again. At least my baby is all nice and cozy. Although I wish I had a little more space in my garage to detail her so I could put my new Coverking custom car cover on her! The new house will definitely have more than enough garage space for all my toys so that I can play with them (clean, upgrade, etc) during the long winter months!

Any day now for a short run, need a rain storm.

I moved down south (partially) because I hate snow. This stupid winter shut the plant down and delayed shipments so the snow is STILL keeping me from getting my car

You all would be shocked how well this car goes in the snow with a set of Conti all weather tires and they are not even dedicated snow tires. I'm in Ohio and don't believe in shoveling my driveway and I drive it to work everyday. I've got an AWD SUV that sits in the garage in the winter.
It won't rust in my lifetime!!!!!
