Looking forward to it here in Iowa especially after last weekend's blizzard! It would be nice to be able to drive it year round without killing it with road salt.[:@]

But the anticipation will be worth it and make it even more fun. Enjoy itwhen the time comes.

What did you do with it to winterize it?

I simply kept mine parked in a heated garage all winter.

I am so ready to get the car out for the spring. I know in MI it will be getting warmer this weekend and should hit the 50 degree mark by the beginning of next week. My insurance agent has no problem with me having no coverage in the winter (except fire and theft) so I will be calling him sooner than the six month mark. It has been stored since early December! I do like the feeling of having a new car each year after taking out of storage. J
