So far I been able to drive it pretty often when the roads are in good shape.
The longest stretch so far of not being able to drive has been 3 weeks.
Pretty much the same story for me and I have had mine for 7 winters near Chicago
Sta-bil in the tank.
Battery Tender hooked up with surge protection.
I got a nice stretch of open toll-road 1 mile from the house.
Head west 24 miles exit and return 24 miles.
Makes a nice 50 mile round trip with no traffic on clean roads.
Back into the heated garage and an hour later a little detail spray and its ready for the next chance to go out.
Longest stretch ever not driven during the winter was 4 weeks.
