Well I am not used to this storage thing

[Farmer Fran]

Well technically not storage, but my car has been on the charger for way to dang long. Should be able to get it out this week. Winter is breaking here.

Funny to say my ICE car is on a charger though

ICE = INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE - way before the "other" ice.

Tempted to get ours out next week, temps will be close to 70, but it'll just be a tease, so will wait.

I agree. it's been way too long. with all this snow melt, i can't make it down the driveway dry yet... sigh. so yeah the warmer temps are just a tease here too.

ICE vehicles don't do well just sitting as if they were in a museum! My solution is simple—drive it year round! I do!

I agree. Either move or get some all season or winter tires...

Glad I live in Texas. My 2024 LOVES COLD AIR!

Clearly not rust belt residents ...

The only solution is, winter beater. It is always fun unwrapping it every spring. Something that brings a level of enjoyment that almost makes the wait worth it.

I have all seasons on, but when the salt goes down the Dark Horse gets parked. Have a 16 year old truck to drive in these conditions.

LMAO my tires are all season. We rarely get snow or ice but this season we had both in a few week span. They put that slurry crap on the road so i parked the car and waited for it all to melt and good rain to wash it away.

Why the hell would i drive it in that crap if i did not have to

Would welcome you to Saint Simons Island, Ga. Great year round.

You might want to consider moving to South Dakota. Here in the SE part of the state we have had temps in the upper 50s to lower 60s. In fact, I put 207 miles on my motorcycle yesterday. With the above normal temperatures and lack of snow, I have driven my Mustang each and every month.

I've been storing Corvettes (and now my Mustang) for 25 years. Never had a problem. The weather has been pretty nice here in Northern Illinois the past few days, but there's still a bunch of salt on the roads. Our spring-like weather will be short lived. I'm sure we'll see more snow. I saw a McLaren parked way out at Walmart yesterday. I'm tempted to take out the Mustang but just can't do it.

Ditto. Besides the DH, I ride motorcycles. Thought about taking a bike out yesterday/today but due to the salt as you say, nope.

Storing. Battery tenders, yes. My bikes - I never start during the off season unless I'm going to actually ride. The DH, I move it a bit in the garage with its over inflated tires to prevent flat spots but do start it every now and then (not as often as the below says) because...
