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!

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.

im just barely 7k miles at 2yrs ownership. i need to motor her much much more. lol

at this pace even after 6yrs ownership she wont be at 22K miles...

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

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

hahaha.

yah, the salt dust does cake onto the side and especially the rear bumper from the exhaust steam even if the road is dry.

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.

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)!

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!
