Withdrawal

Last Tuesday some jackass in a Solara ran a red light and I had to take evasive action. I clipped a huge concrete median block and totaled the left side wheels and tires. Fortunately there was no other damage, but the lead time on the wheels means I don't get her back until the 13th. They gave me a rental... Pathfinder. OMG what a crapwagon. I am crying tears bigger than horse turds.

Try having to store your baby for 5 months out of the year.

Well put. Exactly what I was thinking.

There is something about storing it for awhile that makes you appreciate it all that
Much more when the weather is good and you get to drive it again !

02 Toyota Camry. My beater. 2007 Escalade. The touring machine for winter and hockey tournaments. 2015 F550 for everyday work.
The Escalade has some decent balls. The 550 and Camry not so much.
I could see me getting an STi when the Camry goes to my nephew or daughter. They are fun!!!

Infiniti QX50 SUV. Miss everything about my Camaro during the storage months but the luxury of the QX50 makes it a little easier. And, like someone else stated, when you have to store your ride it makes it that much more enjoyable when taking her out again. Although, I like your moving idea too!
