This is my first winter, and IT SUCKS! My Vert is stored just under a mile away under cover and connected to the CTEK. I try to stop by and warm it up to temperature every couple weeks, but now that the nasty weather has set in, the interval may be longer. Did I mention, this sucks?

As one door closes, many more are just begging to be opened. Good luck with your new endeavor.
And, back to the thread at hand, yes I do miss driving my C5. Time to consider a warmer clime.

Not to compound your problems, but "should of" is actually spelled "should've".

Phonetically, "should of" translates to "should've", the contraction of "should have". If the poster had intended to use the "proper" phraseology, there's (there is) quite a difference between "of" and "have". I was giving him the benefit of the doubt.
Granted, the whole degradation of the English language, as we know it here in the States (which, in itself, is an abomination of the UK version - just ask them), has been exacerbated by the advent of email and instant messaging.

Miss it indeed. It was a little tougher today as I was following an 86 coupe. The temp today was 0 and the roads were white with salt. I wanted to stop him to get a closer look but he really didn't give me reason. Can't wait for spring.
