12.19.17 - about 1600 miles.
Between the cold temps and the salty roads it has been driving me crazy. Finally Sunday I decide I'll drive the car to pick up my wife @ the local airport (Stewart in Newburgh, NY). I swear to God, I have NEVER seen that much salt on a paved surface in my life. Anyone looking for where all the missing road salt in NY State is - it's on the parking lot surface (long and short term) of Stewart Airport.
An hour of driving. An hour of rinsing and washing. It was worth it.

I don't. I just wonder why anybody would spend $60K or whatever on a great sports car and then proceed to never drive the car.
This is something many Corvette owners do, it has been going on for like 50 years.
Go figure.
