2 cars you can't afford? sounds like you have more problems than the weather.

If you can afford it and have a beater for the winter, I guess that's the way to go. But all things considered, the Mustang is fairly cheap car, so from a value point of view, I don't think it's all that necessary to put it away for the winter (your Ferrari, okay, but not the Mustang). It's just a little more challenging to drive in the winter with the RWD and everything, but it can be done (traction control, yadda yadda) and if you keep them cleaned up they still look good. I'd say it's certainly possible to survive a winter with your Pony; that's gonna be my plan, anyway.

I think he means he can't afford to buy a second car so he can park his Mustang for the winter.
