Just kinda curious how many Stangs will get special treatment this winter.

 

By special if you mean in the garage all winter then count me in. First day of snow today 12" so far. The official Mustang done for the winter day the plates will get turned in tomorrow.

 

What do you mean turn your plates in?

 

mines a daily driver...... good thing I only live about a mile from work... if the snow gets that bad, I'm putting on my sorrels and walking

 

My car is too low to drive it in the winter.

 

Yes, Mine as well will get long term storage this winter. I am working several projects out of town this winter, so I won't be home. So she will set in my shop/garage all covered up..........

 

In New York you have to turn the plates back into the DVM when you take the car off the road for the winter. (insurance goes way down)

 

Hmmm, I'll have to check into that and see if Ky is the same..... If I could save some money on my insurance that could help me pay for some of my future mods.........

 

Mine will be hibernating all winter. In fact, I was at the bar last night and my girl showed up and told me they were salting the roads because of snow. I immediately went home (2 blocks away) and put the car in the garage.

Anyway, here in Michigan we don't turn plates in or anything, I just call my insurance company and say I'm not driving the car anymore, so cancel the insurance.

However, because of the multi-car discount, it is actually cheaper for me to have coverage on my truck, and the put the car in "storage" insurance. Storage insurance is very cheap and covers me in case something falls on my car or whatever else may happen while it is sitting in the garage over the winter.

 

I just called my insurance company and had my coverage changed to fire and theft only.

 

GET TO DRIVE MINE ALL YEAR LONG

 

Mine is now in the garage for the winter, unless they don't salt the roads this week.

If your car has a loan, is it possible to downgrade your insurance in Michigan ? I didn't think it was. This could be some useful information.

 

I also just called and drop my coverage down to just comprehisive coverage. She said it would save me about $400.00 if I didn't drive it until april.......

 

Mine goes away this weekend and will not come out until Spring. It kind of stinks b/c on nice days it is tempting to take her out but once there is salt on the road it is better to just leave her in the garage. I ended up with 8400 miles on her this year.

 

8400 miles? Must be nice. Mine has 31,268km on her. Poor thing, she deserves a rest.

 

Mine is tucked away......I'm going through withdrawals.

 

The day I put the car away I downloaded Need For Speed Most Wanted demo. That way I can still drive a mustang in the winter I am also picking up a model this weekend so I can work on it and paint it up to look like my car. Yes, I am a bit obsessive.

 

With 7400 miles on her since last January, she is stored in the back of my double deep garage. Taken out occassionally on nice days. Once the snow gets here....she will hibernate for a while.

 

I drive it almost daily. The weather doesn't get too bad down here plus, while I do love my car, I realize its not a Ferrari

 

Ok guys there is a small fee for the money savings tip
By the way I save about 400.00 as well.
