Winterizing your Vette!!
One item you should do is call your insurance agent and have your car placed in a non-drive mode. That will save you a lot of cash and still keep basic coverage, Fire, thieft, on it.

Depends if you have a lien on it or not. Most lending institutes require full coverage all year long no matter if the vehicle is stored or not. You insurance company will have a Tickler in their system which instructs them what to allow.
Vehicles that have no lien....... absolutely do this. I do this to all my toys.

And yes I can call my agent and tell them I have the vette in storage and save a lot of money.
Why would you need collision coverage if your car is parked in a garage??

Actually I keep plates and insurance active in case there is a stretch of weather and good roads when I can get some driving in. Last year it never happened. Hoping for a milder winter but forecast is otherwise.

My brother has a 2012 Mustang GT with a lien through FordMoCo and he also has StateFarm but his lien requires that he carries "full coverage" regardless if his car is stored or not.
this CF is amazing, a person shares some info they have and gets chastised for it.

She once backed through the garage door and blamed me because my side was open. I guess she thought it was hers open???
