Mine could be coming out soon. Storage is paid through April, but I think I'm taking it out early.

Mines out and teasing the neighbors. The Crossfire that is, what were you thinking?

Forgot, my son was telling me that some insurance companies are refusing to provide fie and theft coverage for winter storage, a full policy or nothing. This may be the new trend.

They'll reconsider that decision when a bunch of sportcars that are usually put away, end up driving in bad conditions and get wrecked..........big payouts then.

After this winter I'm glad I officially never store mine.
There were only about 3 to 4 weeks where I wouldn't drive it.
Nicest winter ever in Chi-town

Couldn't resist any longer. Insurance has been re-instated today so it's good for an evening drive after I get home from work.

I reduce my insurance when it goes in for storage to fire & theft. I checked with my agent today if they have any plans on changing this, and he told me State Farm has no plans on eliminating this option. However, antique vehicles do no have the option because they are already on a very reduced rate based on usage.

I guess because we have other cars just like we have more than one change of clothes and shoes. This enables us to drive and dress appropriate for the season and occasion.

I've been able to drive mine for some of the winter. This week's weather is calling for 60s and 70s which means I will be driving it a lot more.

I didn't intend to start a argument here, But my question was Y U all keep them in storage, & i haven't got an answer on that yet. I run all my cars year round, It just takes a little more cleaning. I have a 1935 Ford 3W coupe, (all steel ) it's not a trailer queen it's a 75 point show car & i run it year round, i'v had it for 41 years & has NO RUST what so ever, so i'm not worried about CALCIUM. It just takes a lot more cleaning. My cars are here for me to injoy. Sorry if i ruffled ur feathers.
