Unfortunately, we're supposed to get 8" or more inches of snow here Wednesday. Not thrilled..... Gave the C8 a thorough cleaning yesterday and have it on the battery tender now. Just spent an hour wiping it down with my Graphene Detail Spray.

May decide to purchase All Season tires, as I have previously done for our '17 GS so I can run this on clear, but cold days.

No snow please. I hope to pick my 2020 up sometime in the next 7 - 10 days.

You can have all the snow you want. I don't mind some snow in the winter, but right now I am enjoying a relatively mild winter.
