    Don't wanna put it away (story)

    I live in SE MI. Seems like I should put the 'Vette away for the cold
    months. I don't think I am though. I had a '91 Firebird for 12 years
    and will keep those rules for the 'Vette. NO snow, NO wet roads when
    possibility of freezing, NO wet road when salt is still present. No
    dry but dusty 'white'(salt) roads. Basically, we have enough dry,
    clean road days between Dec. and April to just keep the insurance on.
    AAA offers a $50.00 rebate for every 30 consecutive days you aggree
    not to drive it.

    I have already driven it on a few dry mornings where the non garaged
    cars needed to be scraped because it was below freezing. It almost
    seemed like it was a little quicker in the cold.?

    Yep, it wasn't your imagination. Cold temperatures are natures super/turbo
    charger. Cold air is much denser than warm air, so you get more O2 into the
    cylinders.

    I can see Michigan and smell Indiana and mine will be driven all winter, got
    the all weather tires on already. Weather is not a factor, just the damn
    deer, got mine already this year.

    I would put it away too if it snowed here but the winter is perfect top down
    weather here in Arizona.

    Back in 78 I was driving my 77 Vette real careful in January in Ohio, Some
    ijit in a tow truck pulling a beat up old piece of junk Gremlin hooked the
    gremlin up wrong and the towed car hit my vette. Last time I drove in the
    snow with a vette.

    I'm in SE MI and I agree with you. Only once did I put it away, and
    those nice crisp winter days when the sun is shining really suck when
    you can't drive the Vette.

    Are you sure that's not Kentucy you're smelling?

    No, Ky. is out, a friend from Indiana watches this group, just a jab at him.

    That deer cost $1254.83 to fix, the next one will go at about .12 cents,
    cost of a 300 grain 44 magnum.
