That is a sad tale indeed. I'de hate the thought of not driving my car for six months. Thankfully we don't have much of a winter here in Texas.

I'm way more north than PA and I have at least another month. Furthermore, the winters do not get more brutal than Montreal.

Sad story!!! I NEVER put her away for the winter,,,,believe it or not,,These cars have great heater/defrosters!!! And the windshield wipers work too

!! Drive mine ALL winter,,she only sits during really nasty snowy/icy spells,,and she only has to sit out a few days on average,,maybe a week at most. Maybe I'm just hard core!! Can't stay out of it for long at all!!

I'm in ND and hope to at least get through Oct. I just got the thing in Sept...my first Vette, and am dreading the upcomming seperation anxiety. I plan on taking it out on some nice, sunny, January day just to get some pics with a snowy background!
