I don't have a car cover. One, I couldn't find one that is made for winter, and two, if the roads are clear in the winter, I could do some driving, mainly to work (2 miles away).
Its not the actual snow I try and avoid, its the sand/salt....and evvvvery road has it all over right now.

I was lucky, Friday I spent the entire day moving, and the Uhaul I rented broke up the bank at the bottom of my driveway enough for me to get the Z out. The roads were perfectly dry, so I decided to chance it...and damn glad I did when I did. Saturday morning woke up to snow and slop, which continued all damn day yesterday and into this morning.

Long story short..the Z made it to my new apt complex, and is safely stored away under her cover Even double checked my full exhaust and all my suspension to make sure no salt or dampness got to it.

On a side note, there's a silver 370 parked in the complex. NY plates, and doesn't look like its moved since winter has hit. Might leave him a note on the windshield to hop on here.
