I guess another thing to consider is what else do you have to drive. I'm driving a GMC 4 wheel drive pickup that I enjoy driving, although in a different way than the Crossfire. I really enjoy coming home and hitting the garage door opener and seeing the Crossfire sitting there super detailed. That's why I don't cover it.

On the other hand, remember when your granny used to cover her furniture with clear plastic to save it? And your grampa used to take his new car to have seat covers put on to protect them? It always turned out that when that furniture and car were sold, someone else took off the covers and enjoyed a like new condition. They saved them for someone else to enjoy.

I guess it also depends on how long you intend to keep your Crossfire. I would assume if you lease it for 3 years who would care how much salt it saw.

But I know what you mean. I came home tonight thinking that I might just take the Crossfire out for a spin but decided naaa, keep it clean, March will be here soon and I can wait.

Now I'll bet your more confused than before.
