With 18" of snow on the ground here in Washington, mines just sitting in the garage. But I also have it tore apart doing a few winter upgrades.

Yes, I miss driving mine even though I have had a lot of missed opportunities to drive it this winter - it has been very nice weather so far. Last week it did snow and the roads were treated, so I guess it will be a little while longer, until it rains, before I get mine out.

There, their or they're. Actually my vette is there, in AZ that is, and I'm here, in Michigan. It's put away in beautiful driving weather, and whether you believe it or not, IT SUCKS!!

My vette's been at ECS almost 2 weeks waiting on a new exhaust from Corsa. I miss driving it, but it is a good thing because when I go this long without driving it, it always feels fast as hell when I drive it again...for about 15 minutes LOL.

Mine has been tucked away in the garage with the cover on since Nov. 1st and I really miss it. Although we haven't had a significant snowfall all winter, (no snow on the ground for ages) the roads are still white with salt. Sure makes it tempting dry roads and all but I will not drive it until that white s..t is gone.

I am always sorry to hear about all of those that have to park their Vette for the winter. That is the great think about Florida, sure it will be a little cold today (at least for Floridians) but I will be out later with my '01 coupe going to the weekly Thursday night cruise in at Quaker Steak & Lube.

I hope your skills will land you something sooner vs. later. If you can do contract work or consulting, that can often be a lifesaver as it was for me.
Good luck
