So, what do you do?
I live in South Carolina, and I don't anticipate it getting cold enough this winter to stop driving my coupe. I read about and hear about guys, and gals, who garage their cars during the winter months. What do you find to do to replace the loss? What do you have to talk about on the forum during those months?
Better you than me.

I understand perfectly, mine is my toy also. I only drive it about twice a week, and I always plan my trips because of fretting over where to park it. I just like the idea over the winter months of being able to jump in it and get a quick fix whenever I like. But you are right, absence does may the heart grow fonder.

Thankfully we have a lot of good weather in CO even in the middle of winter. So I just bring the vette out anytime the weatherman says there is good weather. I just make sure to give the car a good under cariage wash every other week or so

Well winter is sleepy time for my vette, so I have to settle for racing games on the PS3.
there's actually some really good car games and best of all the ones I play have Corvettes in them!
Right now I am playing Need for Speed Pro Street, and they have 3 vettes in it. A 67, a C6 and a C6 ZO6. Using the C6 right now, upgraded to 658 hp at the moment, but can still do more to it. Will be getting the ZO6 once I earn it.
