    Well, I really hoped I wouldn't be saying this again. . .

    My car is going to be driven all year round this year. . .

    I know, it's a shock, considering I drove the V6 Camaro for the past 1 1/2 winters, but the Formula is going to be driven this winter. No space in the garage for it next to the Monte Carlo, and I'll be living on campus, which is where I work also, so it will sit nestled safely under a car cover for most of the winter, but when I have somewhere to go, i.e. a Dr. appointment, the bank, etc., she will see the icy, salty, nasty MI winter roads. I'm saving up for a set of All-Season or Snow tires for the stock rims, and the C5's will come off during the winter. Maybe I'll even find the cash to upgrade to the Boyd's I want. . . Prabably not, but I can dream, right?

    Well, I'll drive the Formula all winter unless I can get some help getting the clutch situation figured out with the 6er, then I'll throw the stock Formy wheels and all-season's on it and drive it this winter. . . I'm hoping to get it painted before too long, but with the school year starting up in less than 4 weeks, I don't think I'll be able to get that to happen. Gotta buy a new computer, text books, the necessities for my apartment, you know.

        sucks doesnt it? I had to drive my firebird 2 winters ago before I got a beater, had my brothers stock camaro wheels on it with some nice winter tires, it sure got through a lot, stayed nice too considering I washed it at least once a week often more. I would sell you the tires, but someone swiped them and the wheels out of our barn in the middle of the day a while back..
