Default Left Out In The Cold. HELP!

Can the members of this Forum - particularly those in Southern and Western climes - PLEASE show a little sympathy for those of us in the Northeast covered by mountains and MOUNTAINS of snow?

Now, I do not - nor have not - have a "garage Queen" (as many of you know I've been slicing and dicing [figuratively speaking] my V6S up until mid-Jan, and I've been away for the last 3 weeks) but this is getting a bit ridiculous. Snow, snow, and more snow.

OK, I've calmed down. The F-Type shall rise again...and soon! (And, no, I will not be waiting for spring. Not even close).

Stay tuned...

P.S. Of course I know that I am opening up the doors to receiving picture after picture of sunny, cloudless - SNOW-LESS - skies and clear and open roads. So be it...

But where's the [your] F-Type buickfunnycar???? (I've just returned from 14 days in Arizona; Grand Canyon and Sedona and I know what warmer weather is like...I'm just itching to get my F-Type out there!).

But thanks for the...eh...warm thoughts.

That's what I'm talkin' about! Thank you very much ApolloBeachRetiree. Truth is - like a beautiful woman - seeing the F-Type (in all colors, combinations, and configurations) alights anew my adore for this splendid automobile (even if mine is stuck in my garage).

But not for long!

While my car is asleep in storage with dreams of 911s quickly receding in the rearview mirror, I'll be shoveling off my garage roof this weekend. Only 32" of snow in the backyard at last count. Snow then rain this weekend, then cold, then more snow next week.


Yay.

You have my sympathy - well, you would have if I wasn't so distracted by my drive home this afternoon around the beach on this gorgeous 27C (81F) summer day here in Melbourne!

That's quite OK OzRisk...I can take and, indeed, practically begged for it. That and the lovely - sunny - photos other Forum members have graciously shared with us Northeasters...and other parts of the wintry country.

Fear not, there will come a time - sooner rather than later; as I do NOT intend to wait for spring (assuming it ever comes) - when my F-Type will be unleashed from the snow/ice-Gods.
