We've got 5-6 inches on the ground in the Northwest suburbs. I'm glad I put mine away at the end of October.

Hmm... If its got 4 wheels, and a gas pedal, I am taking it out in the snow to play. And the vette to me is no exception, it gets the abuse just like every other car I've had in the winter.

I took it out in this fine past winter snow fall we had, with the 6-9" or whatever it was on the ground, had some fun in 'empty private' parking lots. AND I got it on video, which will be uploaded just as soon as I edit it a little. I am sure a few will stroke out over it on here

Was in San Antonio all last week, where I was told the average temp. this time of year is low 60's. We had daytime highs of 30's & 40's with freezing rain. Guys I was working with said I brought it with me from Va.
