We had a nice warm spell here in Wisconsin with a heavy shot of rain that washed all the salt off the roads last week. Then, Tuesday night, they dumped 1/2 and inch of salt on 1/4 inch of snow.amnit: No warm temperatures/rain to wash the salt off again for at least 2 more weeks. Spring delayed. Cruel, cruel tease.:violin:

I'm in Southern Indiana and we got a dusting last night, but the roads are clear and dry.... I think I'll take the Stang for a drive before it snows again tonight.

That sucks. We finally got a break in our rainy weather today. I finally got around to washing and waxing the Stang. I actually washed her twice because I was rinsing her off after the first wash and still noticed some dirt, so I figured might as well do it all over again.

You're CA Special obviously doesn't reside in California.

I agree!!! Enough already with Winter - it's almost April and it can't avg above 45 degrees in NYC. I had to thaw my garden hose inside the house just to be able to wash the stang this past weekend. Until it gets warmer, NYC will not fix the pothole-ridden, weather-beaten roads. And until the roads get fixed, I dare not get my new shoes yet - 19" Vossens. I'm terrified to think of what these roads will do to them - at this rate, I won't be getting them until late May :-(

I'm afraid we all don't have that priviledge - I guarantee the stang is thoroughly loved, just the same I do plan on getting a car cover, though....

Make sure you get a strap that goes under the car connecting both sides of the cover, most have a gromet hole to do this. Otherwise the wind does NASTY things to the cover.

and wasnt trying to be rude....just was feeling like a smart a$$ yesturday

parking over bare earth concentrates moisture on the undercarriage and can promote rust.

I just figured he was going to give an opinion on people who park in their yards. I had to park there to let the delivery guys get to my back yard and I sure wasn't parking my car on the street.
