Default Drive the vette

With the sun shinning, temp. in the 40's and dry roads in Dayton Ohio I'm going to take the vette out for a drive.

Drive you baby every chance you can in the winter when the roads are dry and salt free, no matter what the temps are. This REALLY helps make winter go buy much faster when you can steal some vette driving days from old man winter. My vette and big block 70 Dodge Charger have been out for 3/4 of DECEMBER and that flat out ROCKS and I hope January and February is half as good!!!

Nice to be able to get the car out every now and then in the winter. Sure is a cure for those winter blues.
