Nice that you could get the car out for a spin. Here - the 9+ inches of snow we just got is going to keep mine in the garage a while longer (as is the 2-3" more we expect to get on Sunday).

We are suppose to get some more snow this Sunday too... Just think - I drove the vette just a week ago. I never really "put mine up for winter". I just do not need to drive it in rain or snowy conditions...

Drivers are bad enough around here when the streets are dry..
