I am also storing mine for winter. Road salt is terrible for cars.

I insure it for only half the year, but I notified my company I was taking the car out for the day to avoid any issues that may arise.

I normally drive my van for winter because it is leasing.
All the other car I bought will be garage queen in winter.

Same thing in Calgary, but less of a sand... more gravel, rocks, and fucking boulders. So unless you want the equivalent of a battalion of musketeers firing at your grill, hood, bumper, and windshield you keep your baby indoors here.

If it hasn't snowed for a while and it's been warm you may get a few days when the roads are clear of rocks (since they've all been chucked off to the side).

OP! Nice to hear you got a good day in. Can't wait for the next Chinook here.
