Things change for the better rapidly in March (usually). The Vette was out on the last week of March last year. This winter sucks twice as hard though so we'll wait and see.

I might suggest meeting at Porky's on University. Doesn't matter much as long as it's a nice day to put the top down.

Hey Fritzauf, Amherst Ohio; you must be kidding. My wife grew up in Amherst, on South Lake Street. I used to drive out from Cleveland to see her. She complained when they put the first stop sign up in what was called "courtesy corner" The little town must have grown up if has a local Crossfire owner. We're 14 yrs older, so you and she wouldn't have crossed paths. We may drive our XF back for her 50th reunion in 2010. Maybe we'll cross.

Seems to me, Chrysler should give us Northerners (Canucks as well), twice the normal warrantee, as we garage it half the year. Then again, our tires last twice as long; and that's not easy to do.

I have driven mine for a total of 21 months since I got it in late '05 and only put 12,000 miles on it, pretty sad. I gotta get out more.

I never put mine away unfortunately. She is a daily driver.

However, she gets treated realy nice. washed twice a week (once through touchless and once by hand) and every once in a while ill take a coarse bristled brush to her underside (mostly just the frame rails)



She's treated me very nice this winter... Though she already wants her skates off and running shoes back on.

There's only 2 days this week below freezing here in Murderapolis Moneysota. The snow is going to be toast. Then we'll need a couple of "gully washers" to get rid of the friggin salt and we're good to go!

Talked to the boss's boss the other day. Ft Lauderdale is still a go. I will know for sure by the end of the month and it's "good bye winter" forever!
