It stayed home yesterday but driving all today...and its clear skies instead of rain. I'll be sad, I'll be storing her for winter in maybe a month or snow...so enjoying every last minute

sounds great! :tup: yah, enjoy the days you have left for sure. :)

while i will be hibernating the Z most of the winter i am planning to take her out on dry days. :driving: im just barely 7k miles at 2yrs ownership. i need to motor her much much more. lol :D at this pace even after 6yrs ownership she wont be at 22K miles... :rofl2:

very low miles indeed...I want to keep the miles low too but I love driving her too much lol. But I also don't have a G that shares time with it like you Mr. Kenchan :tup:

I wanted to do the dry cold days also but the salt they use up here is just nasty

hahaha. :D

yah, the salt dust does cake onto the side and especially the rear bumper from the exhaust steam even if the road is dry. :ugh2: so i use no-rinse car wash in my garage if i can get the garage ambient temp warm enough to where the thing doesn't freeze.... usually 0C is no problem.

but hibernating the car is sooo much easier. :icon17:

No snow yet but supposed to get very cold next weekend. Has been raining just about everyday though. I'll take the car out any chance I get before the snow comes.

Mr. Kenchan. That is what I was thinking. I even had to wear long sleeves to work today.

happytheman 10-13-2011 05:23 PM

Yep, we're feeling it too! Mornings are in the low 70's (farenheit)! :eek:

I'm sad, because I'm going to have to store my Z overnight during the winter! :(

Footloose301 10-13-2011 05:45 PM

I can't wait until winter. My back sweat sucks. Our seats should be cooled like the roadsters.

Actually, statistically speaking...they usually bypass us and move on to the Carolinas, smartypants! :)

Got tons of video. 2 hours of devils highway, a couple hours of NM HWY 152 and some of 180 in between. Once I get it edited I'll try getting it onto youtube. But I have to say 152 is every bit as twisty going through Gila National forest.

Sounds like a serious road trip Skeeter.

Have fun and be safe! :hello:
