I feel all of your pain... Mine is tucked away in the garage, but will be shipped to a body shop for paint and have the engine replaced during the winter. This is when I get all my major mods done..

Absolutely, same here.

I can't afford a beater, so my GT is my daily driver, even in the MA winters.

you can get a beater for <1000 and the insurance would be small. I pay 200ish for insurance on my beater per year. It's actually cheaper to have a beater insurance wise. It would be more expensive if I use the stang as a daily driver. It also saves money on gas.

You guys are lucky as hell, Im in TX I hate it SO much here, November and Im still sweating.... its FINALLY supposed to be 59 or so this weekend, it'll only last like a week though.
Can't wait to move North, i couldn't see myself driving a cheap $1000 car for months at a time though, if it were only for like a month MAYBE, even that would be pushing it though.

Mine's goin' in for the winter too. It sucks, but I have a company Ranger 4x4, so i'm pretty well off.

Oh, BTW, I grew up in Chgo. You're right, it's fricken cold. New Yorkers complain, but I laugh at them. They don't know what cold is here. LOL!

I have weathered winters in both Texas and Massachusetts with my Stangs over the years. I definetely hate putting my Stang away. That was the one saving grace in TX. Although the ice storms suck there because they don't have nearly enough sanding trucks.

Good news is, I drive my tow vehicle - 99 4X4 Dodge Diesel pickup in the winter. It's been mod'ed, so it's not so bad to miss the Stang. Truck has more HP than the Stang but also more weight, so it kinda evens out in the end !!!

I get to play with the 4WD tomorrow - we are expecting 1-3 inches of snow!!!
