Thumbs down

ARGH! I just finished waiting over a WEEK here in NJ for the snow to melt and the salt to be blown off the roads for my baby. I got so excited, I was going to drive my Mustang this morning, when lo and behold, I look out my window, and it SNOWED. Not even significantly, maybe a half inch, but more than enough to put her down for at least another 3 to 5 days. AAAAAAAAA!!!! :bang:
This is torture of the worst kind.

Put my Stang away December 10th ... I've turned it on a few times, moved it a few feet up in the garage once ....

Other than that its sitting with a cover on it


After waiting so long to get it, I only got around 2 weeks of driving out of it .... then I gotta wait close to 4 months to drive it again.

PSH!

Yeah, but I have to drive mine. I do not have the luxury of putting one of my cars in a box till springtime.

I do own two Mustangs, but my fiance has to drive something too.

Mine is my daily driver and I drive it as much as possible, I do have a subaru for when it snows. But I try to drive the mustang as much as possible even in a little snow as is goes pretty well. I refuse to put it away for the winter. Last weekend here in Pennsylvania we got 12" of snow and she only sat 1 day until the roads cleared, then I had her out in it.

Why should a little bit of snow deprive you of the pleasure of driving your Mustang? Believe me, with appropriate shoes this stallion can run in the snow!

Ok, I admit I've been driving my old car when the weather is really bad...

I haven't driven mine in 2 weeks. Yesterday I took her out because all of the salt is off our roads. Of course it snowed last night so now we have more salt on the roads. I'm glad I got to drive her yesterday; I was starting to get depressed.

It's not that the car cannot go in the snow, it's the stupid salt and melting chemicals they put down on the roads, it eats away at your undercarriage and is not to nice on your cars finish either.

Brought her home on 12/20 and she's been in storage most of that time (only 100 miles on her). I broke down this weekend and took her out several times. After a thorough cleaning (salt removal), she's back under cover dreaming of spring.
