For me, it was killing me not to drive it in the winter, so I would just sit in it now and then, in the garage, and listen to the radio.
Now, in the spring it sits in the garage, spotless. I live on a dirt road, very muddy. The main roads are dry. I take it out for a drive, (because I can't stand driving a beater when it's nice out) and come home and wash it all over again! Well worth it! Also, if it's above 45, I drive it topless! That's awesome.
