Things are ok. I'm taking a break from finishing the drywall in my man cave so I can get my body kit ready while the weather is still nice. I'm shaving the emblem on the front, and trying to get this lip to fit. Once I'm done I need to wait a week before I take it to my painter. I'll also need to take the Z to him so he can colour match, which means I'll need to insure it for a day... At least I'm finally making some progress in the right direction.

It is a good weekend to be off. Today is the Marine Corps Birthday and tomorrow is Veteran's Day.

That's a tough one. If it was me, I wouldn't just because of all the work put into it for storage... On the other hand, nice day + drive the Z =

Thankful too for our neighbors to the north...and all of our service people...hubby and my dad both AF vets...armed forces runs in our family....also appreciate the sacrfice of the families that have to survive while the service members are gone, hard on them too...

Question for you guys: does everybody use a "battery tender" for over winter storage? What happens if i dont?

I use a Ctek 3300. Ctek are some of, if not, the best battery chargers. If you don't use one, make ure you disconnect the battery.
