Another 5ish inches fell today.
No bikes... no Camaro for probably another month. After the salt is rinsed away.

As soon as the snow was melted, I had the top down on Saturday. Low of 7 degrees last week and up to 77 tomorrow. What fun.

Yea but by the looks of things you dont have any salt down there!!
Once it melts its just water...
Up here when it melts its liquid acid that gets into places you cant even rinse it out from... only to blossom out 5 years later as a bubble in your paint.

I'm in Detroit, so in the same boat as Martin above. Wait, can't use my boat either. I LOVE Michigan but I hate the winters!

went for a nice drive just after sunset last night - it was perfect weather had been over 70 but was in the mid 60's by then. After my engagement I still had the top down and froze by butt off on the freeway with temps down to the low 50's by that time! But was fun to get the car out for some cruising either way!

Oh - and more testing on the stereo install and it seriously rocks - even with the top down on the freeway - which was my design goal!

Frustrating. All the main roads are dry, but just getting from my garage to a main road would have me driving thru melting, salted slush. Not happenin’.

Yep, the fudged up slurry that is created from that mess is the WORSE! Gets in places you cannot clean and starts the corrosion!

52F was the high today. Same thing, roads generally clear, snow on the sides of the road and intermittent salt / sand puddles.

I couldn't bring myself to taint the vert, so my sacrificial lamb (the stang) went out for some exercise. In the end, it was a bit more work than it was worth, a 1 hr drive = 1 hr cleaning.

A Camaro should have never been made as a convertable...it's just wrong.
