Default just took my Z off the road for winter

so yesterday I took the Z off the road for the next 6 months she'll be in the garage waiting for April to come around. For now, going off-roading with my jeep doesn't compare to the fun I have with my Z though, I seriously LOVE that car.


to make this more clear, the reason i took it off the road so soon is because my 6 month insurance policy was up and i pay a lot to have this car insured in NY so i was not going to pay another 6 month insurance policy (360$ a month) for the car to sit most of that 6 months so since i have another vehicle i let the policy run out and turned in the plates.

I'd never own a vehicle that I could only use for six months of the year. I sailed my Hobie Cats and sailboards with a wetsuit when it was cold, but never had to quit using them for more that a couple weeks.

Mine will only be coming off for a few days if winter hits hard. If there's snow or ice, it will be in the garage till it clears up.
