I know it's a waste of insurance money (and car payments) paying for a car to sit in the driveway for the next few months but accidents and rust suck.

I'm sure he, and myself, would put our cars away for winter but if he's in the same position as me where you either can't afford to get a winter car or find it hard to buy something you don't want/need year round then it's kinda hard to. I'm going to search CL for winter tires like someone suggested to me and put some weight in the back. It's all I can do :/

Same situation here. Today is the last hurrah. Running some errands then home for a final wash before the cover goes on. Yes I know. Covers are bad.

I run mine until it snows enough for them to do something to the roads (it did spit a little Friday). It's not the snow that hurts things, it's the salt / calcium chloride / sand.
