Its funny how many different strokes there are for people, but thats what makes the forum the forum. I read about the guys down south that drive all year round and am some what jealous, but when spring comes up north, maybe just maybe its a little sweeter when you bring her back to life after a long cold winter. Theres just not to much that brings me more pleasure then to turn the key and hear that low rubble grumble of the exhaust, I can almost hear "lets go kick some ***"!!

I feel your pain. It spit a little snow here yesterday. Hope its the last. I added my liability and comprehensive insurance coverage on a nice day last week, then the weather crapped out and it hasn't been out yet.

Soon......very soon.......

Assume you ment that you recently added liability and collision coverage back on your policy........should keep comprehensive on all year around to cover theft/fire other potention loss during storage.
