Leaves are falling here too, but I'd say we have about a month or so of driving weather left.

We are right on the coast so sometimes it can be nice through Nov into Dec, depends on when it snows and how much salt and sand they through all over the place. The car is new for me so I do want to drive it as much as possible / as long as possible.

I'm loving the car, I think it was a good choice (almost went the 911 route).

Yeah, Mr. Jean, good point about the wet ones.

Cheers, Ed

About a month here too if we're lucky. Lots of downed leaves blowing around the streets & highways. Be sure to check the the front of the radiator more often this time of the year.

Funny thing is, we get falling leaves - but in the spring, along with a heavy layer of pollen.

We just don't have to stop driving....
