I'm holding out a few more weeks to put mine away. I was going to put it away this weekend, but since there is no snow here in the Chicagoland area just yet, and temps are supposed to get into the fifties later in the week, I decided to wait.
This is the first car I have ever had that I planned to store for the winter . . . My first salt-free car!
Kind of an odd feeling to put it away for the winter. Thought we should have a hibernation thread--kind of a Northern "misery-loves-company thread."
Cleaned, detailed and a fresh coat of Kenotek (like this stuff!)
And wearing the Christmas gift from my understanding wife . . .
If I am going to look at it daily might as well have some fun. Actually, makes me think of a kid asleep wearing Superman pajamas.
Same cover here--love it!! I figure I've got maybe 30 more days of cruising in KS before she goes to bed for the winter. Love the Superman PJs analogy!!

Reason: Thought of more.

I put mine in my storage garage just in case they salt Chicago streets because of the predicted rains. I covered it but did not put on the tender yet hoping the streets will remain salt free.

Reason: typo
Any suggestions on where to order the foam pads for the tires not to get flat spots from. Thanks guys and that cover is so cool!

Put all season tires on my C7 and plan to drive whenever possible this winter. Will not take it out in extreme weather (lots of snow). However, we have many days here in Nebraska during the winter when the roads are clear and very drivable. It may sit for a couple of weeks but I will attempt to drive it as much as I can.
