Winter Weather Sadness
 
Well, looks like we'll get our first snow in north Jersey today. Just another sad reminder that my baby has to go into hibernation for the winter. I have also lost a lot of end of season drive time due to some work I'm having done. I need to get a few more trips in before it retires to the back space in the garage!

im in north jersey too and i dont have a garage :/

I feel your pain man. This weekend coming up is supposed to be the last nice weekend here in Cleveland. I am planning on putting mine away Thanksgiving weekend. :crying:

Mergnthwirker 11-07-2012 11:35 AM

I agree. I parked mine for the winter too. Sold my snow tires. Went to an AWD beater for the winter (Audi S4 with 150k miles). I'll miss the cosmic rush of the 370Z!

Nice pic, bro!

That's what it looks like out my window too (minus the Z, which is stored in a warehouse).

Yup, just some rain and winds, power was on the whole time.

and oh yeah? Maybe I missed it, I do live here, and I think im the only red Z in the area, so must have been me. :tup:

O wow, tinted headlights it was, but im suprised I dont remember, I do have bad memory sometimes, :icon17:, but I would def have recalled another Z, especially another white nismo Z cuz not many of those around my area. :driving:

nmjaxx9 11-07-2012 02:38 PM

Are we talking about the weird hat/hair/head shape guy again?:stirthepot:

kobnj 11-08-2012 07:35 AM

My Z is my year round car and I also live in North Jersey. My Z had its first ride in snow today and I plan on keeping my sport tires on all winter.

Winter is lame, don't forget to add fuel saver to your gas and trickle charger if possible!

NewtoZ's5 11-08-2012 01:15 PM

Winter weather, what's that?:rolleyes: J/k, although we are still in the mid 70's and still wearing shorts here in the DFW area. Don't think I could deal with that mess:shakes head:

madwi 11-08-2012 06:49 PM

I am hoping to get at least another week or two of driving here in Michigan. Just enough time to hit the break in 1200 miles and put it away in the garage for the winter. :shakes head: :mad:

junior_jam 11-08-2012 07:04 PM

Year round daily driving in NC all year long. Had to gloat. I'm a jerk. :happydance:

This is what I'm hoping for as well...currently sitting on ~1050 miles. I figure I hit 1200, change oil, top off gas, fill up tires, and trickle charge into hibernation until late Feb/early March.

I have 1047 miles lol. Your plan is the same as mine.

I was forced to abandon ship, and leave the Z at the office last night. The roads were too ridiculous. There was about 3 inches of snow on her this morning. Not cool, man.

cossie1600 11-08-2012 11:16 PM

I ran snow tires for the first time in the Z. The car still isn't great in the snow, but it got me home safely
