Making it thru the winter...

I have parked my L for the winter, as some of you guys do.

I brought it home 2 days before it snowed, and those 2 days just got me more excited about driving it.

It's only been 3 weeks, 3 more months seems so far away.

How do you guys make it thru the non L season?

I guess modding would be one route.

pray to the snow god for a mild winter.

Sorry to hear about that (I'm a SoCal native & don't know what snow is), how about giving it a real wax & detail to go along w/the mods?

I'm in Southern Massachusetts with a foot of snow on the ground just looking at the "L" in the garage. I guess spring will be here soon.

Mine will be registered year round but don't intend to use it when
snow, salt......etc. is on the road. Took along time to get it and there won't be any more I guess.

Not to rub it in or anything, but it's going to be 70+ degrees in Houston this weekend and we're going jetskiing! Score one for living in the South.

Custom NOAH truck cover over mine in the garage. It’s kind of like “out of sight, out of mind”.

Still kind of sucks because you know its there and your always peaking under the cover…

Snow tires and 350lbs of sand in the back gets me through the winter.

And a very light right foot. The TorqueMonster does like to go sideways when it snows...

I have the same problem as I live in Connecticut. My truck has been parked for 3 weeks now and I cant wait till spring. This is my first winter with my L. One good thing is think of all the gas money you are saving, lol. All that saved gas money can go for parts. And we all like parts.
