Florida, at least in the parts I've been to, is pretty flat, and it's hills that tend to bring curves. And curves are what it's all about.

Storing the car for four months is certainly a difficult thing to do, but you can't beat the anticipation and then experiencing the first drive in spring. It's like buying the car all over the again.

As they say... absence makes the heart grow fonder.

Reading this thread is certainly amusing! Our weather here in Central, CA is touching 80; in another month, maybe 6 weeks, it'll be time for me to put my car away - for the summer! I know, at least I can still drive it, when it's 110 F outside, if I really, really have to - nothing will happen bad (like what salt might do) to it, but still... With luck summer will be like last year, nothing like those few surprise days when the high stops just short of 95!
