pffffttttt. Thinking about it around here has 0 effect. 4-5 days a week for a month: rain.

It’s raining right now. Lol. 😂

95% chance of rain… To drive or not to drive the GS.

It’s a depreciating Chevy. It won’t melt. Drive it. Unless you’re saving it for the next owner, which I’ve never understood.

Drive mine all the time in the rain. Unless I'm showing it at a show, a little dirt is not a problem for me. When I bought it 1.5 years ago in December in Ohio I had to drive through snow to get it home. Otherrwise I don't drive it in the winter due to the salt. From April ~December it shares my daily driver duties with my other car which has been a Focus RS and now is a Acura TLX. My wife drives our Ridgeline which is her daily driver and our tow vehicle.
