Had to give the car it's final bath before it goes under cover for the next 5-6 months... :(

Took some shots of it all cleaned up and ready to go in the garage, once I get the RAM out of there...

Wow, you have a lot of snow on the ground already. It was 61 deg. today in Michigan, wishing I could have took mine for a spin.

yeah, we got dumped on the day before Thanksgiving. Got around 11" here in my City. Wish I was closer to the coast, just 30 mins away they only got an inch or so, it was mostly rain. I cringed the whole 500 foot drive down my Sand and Salt covered road to fill the tank before storage today. Made sure I did the undercarriage real well. The whole thing will be detailed over the winter on jack stands anyway.

I often drive mine towork every other Saturday. But it stayed in the garage today due to much needed rain in Texas. Otherwise, I probably get 340 days a year that are perfect Viper weather :)

Well, I thought she was in hibernation mode but it hit 60 degress yesterday here in NE Ohio. Took it off the battery tender and went for a 1-2 hour cruise. It was actually my wife who had to convince me to go for it. "This could be the last day till March or April" she said.

So I went for a cruise and she went shopping... we were both in Heaven! :D

Ouch, that much snow this early is depressing indeed. If you can, keep it accessible and on a Battery Tender....that way when it rains (to wash away the salt) and then dries out you can cruise in the winter without getting the underside nasty. You won't have much grip, but I recall chasing away some winter blues with a Viper cruise when I lived in Chicago....

Just did the same thing and my day might be doubly tough as I also just listed my Viper in the classifieds. I just picked up a 2009 project Viper, and lack of garage space (and understanding by my wife) will force me to sell one :(. Did take one pretty nice pic - I love Pinnacle Wax!:
