This is my annual post from Michigan.

I completed the 'storage routine" on my Vehicles today including the Midnight Blue 2006 Ford GT.
(wax, gas, tires, battery tender, oil, cover , insurance etc)
Motorcycles too.

:(:(

I feel sorry for you AJB & all our GT brothers in winter climates! In NorCal winter means I have to give up the mountain roads & stick to the valley & coast roads.

I think our brothers in Fl, AZ and CA should store our GTs in the winter months so we can fly out and visit them. (the residents, not just the cars) lol !

Snow started here ! However incredible fall weather and colors! Hopefully can start "wintering" in a warmer climate in a few years!

Instead of storing cars for winter, why not " Adopt An Owner ", and send the car to one of the Brethren in a warm place for continued use during winter months?

You could probably get them to pay for shipping.

there has to be a tax write off in there too somewhere. I'll call the Donald and find out!

Don't store mine here in the Seattle area - cars and coffee events will end in a few weeks (impossible to predict rain outs), but the weather is nice enough to drive all year.

My only consolation is my focus RS should be arriving soon! (Order placed 1 year ago) With snow tire and wheel option looking forward to snowmobiling! With after market tuning should be 400 hp!

Mine is put away. We do have some nice weather left but I'm out of the country the next month.

You can drive all year round in Seattle - yes! But it may be a little wet!

About to do the same. 3-5 inch of white stuff outside. Still, weather calls for 61 degrees in a dew days. Hope for a few more driving days.
Hope to have a different winter location a year or two :)
