Do you drive your Camaro in the rain?
I guess this only applies to those who have an alternative vehicle...I know a lot of you don't have that option.
I have an older Cruze that I drive most of the time. I drive my Camaro to work on occasion. My intention was to drive it less often during the winter months and to NEVER drive it in the rain. Why? I guess I don't want water spots and gunk built up on the bottom of the car. But now I'm starting to think there's no reason to freak out about some rain exposure here and there. I do a good seal/wax job every 4 months and keep it garaged. Let's hear some thoughts from the rational members lol... And I bring this up because I'm afraid to bring my car in for warranty work in the winter months when who knows when it's going to rain! If your option in the poll isn't there don't vote until it's fixed! Thanks. Last edited by Mikey LikesIt; 11-17-2016 at 06:50 PM. |

Dude you are in Nor cal though? no weather elements will hurt the car there (unfortunately I grew up there til 06 when I was just old enough to gtfo and moved to Tx). But anyways yes I dd mine as much as I can, rain does not bother me. I have the 2016 Tundra 4x4 I use if it floods (welcome to Tx) or water gets too high but otherwise rain or shine mine is getting driven.

Yes. Because it's a car that with one rinse less wash (15 minutes) it looks just as good, if not better than before the rain..
I love driving in the rain. Something about it makes the cars look gorgeous while cruising down. |

I voted no, and I have another car but with that being said I would drive it in the rain if I had too. Heck when I bought the car I drove it home in a huge rainstorm! I would never drive it in snow or salt though!

I only drive mine in the rain if it rains while I am traveling. I am with the first poster on not wanting the gunk building up on the bottom of the car. I have an old Buick Lesebra to drive in rain or snow. I do gotta say, after driving my Camaro it is really difficult to get in that old Buick. I bought my Camaro on April 19, the day after the last oil change on my Buick, since then I have put about 800 miles on my Buick and 4300 on my Camaro. I think that will turn around when snow flies.

Nope. It's not a DD for me. Only comes out when it's nice.

Yep it's my DD. Just put my snow tires on last night and drove it through the first snow storm here in Utah today.

If I get caught in the rain then its no big deal but I will take my Explorer if it is raining pretty good in the morning when I am about to leave for work.
