There's not a choice in your poll for my situation. My Stang is not my DD. But I DO drive it in the winter. Just when there's NO snow or ice.

Mine is a DD. The way I look at it, the stang isnt made out of gold or anything. I drive it all year round.

Around here, winter is 6-7 months long. I ain't going to park it for that long. What would be the point of owning something you just looked at? I drive it daily weather permitting. If it gets bad, I'll plan my errands around the weather.

ORIGINAL: PCstang05

I park it in the winter because I live in PA and the roads get pretty sloppy and salty in the winter.
Ain't that the truth! Here around Philly area they use that brine solution on the roads, which is like super concentrated salt water. I run my Ranger most of the winter, although I did have the Stang out last week when we had stretch of 60 degree days. Felt really good!

same here, garage for snow and Ice. staying there most of winter to avoid salt and stuff. did have it out on SDaturday though since it was nice and the roads were relativly clean. felt good since I didnt drive it for a month.

will go out rain or shine 3/5/08, since that is when it is going to JDM for the Saleen Watts link and 3.73 gears

Mine is covered up and parked as long as the roadsare bad. I have taken it out fortwo little crusies in the past two month, when the roads dried up and all the salt had washed away after raining.
