Well, here in my parts of good ole' Canada we currently have a foot of snow... therefore; Withdrawal! My baby's been put away since November 
.As MJR46 and I discussed earlier, the only good thing about it is the eggnog and spiced rum. But I gotta admit, for all those who are in my "shoes" as well, does not that first initial ride just beat all! Take off the cover, check the fluids, connect the battery and start "er up. IMO, about the only feeling that comes close to losing your virginity. I go through a set of tires every year, on the first day. But I gotta be honest and say I get the odd tear here and there cause I miss her! Anyhow, I guess this thread's really about nothing. So what about if anybody posts absolutely anything for encouragement for all those out there who's in the same situation. Thanks guys and gals and Merry Christmas to everyone!

I've had a few thumping musclecars that I can say "I know the feeling". Missing them for their power, character and just being reminded of how bad *** they are. Ya, spring time is something to look forward too. I've also had some fun but not as desireable cars. After storing and driving fun cars year round. Came to the conclusion that's it's more fun to experience that everyday. So now on, unless I have something truely unreplaceable I enjoy my junk everyday. Rain or snow. I mean do you store it to preserve the car or because it's not a good car in the snow?

I can't afford a second car so i drive mine in the snow. I have been faking problems with it lately because i hate seeing all those chemicals and salt caked on it. My parents have been unhappily driving me around. and i love the 4 eyed look thats why i went with an 82

Yeah bud I put it away to preserve the car. It's never seen snow and only rain a couple times when I got stuck out with it. Other then that it's been garage kept and stored every winter. It doesn't have any rust underneath or anywhere on the body so I take a lot of pride in my car. I'd just like to keep it that way I guess. Year 'round, I have an '04 corolla that I putt around in.
