As the title says, is this ever going to end WTF?! It was snowing on the way home from work today. I've got such a bug to pull the car out and start getting it ready for the Spring, but the forecast looks crappy for the next several days.

I can't wait to see your C4.....uh, I mean GT.... err, I mean SS back on the road again! Things change so fast that I can't keep up.

When the glacier melts off my driveway, I might have to think about pulling a car outside. I've got a few oil changes to do.

My car has been out a few times but I am tired of the cold. We got a little snow yesterday but it has melted already. Today, high of 37, tomorrow high of 30. Last year at this time it was in the 80's.
