Default Put my tibby away for the winter last night

Im gonna miss it. Did an oil change, rolled it into the garage, put 4 donuts on in place of the 17's, did a coolant flush with fresh anti-freeze, and removed the battery. I'll bring it out again in March when the weather gets better. At that point I'm not sure if I'll sell it and get a genesis or keep it. I have a beater Subaru Outback to get me through the winter months.

that's a lot of care! i drive both cars whenever wherever, winter, summer, never flush coolant or anything haha.



it must be neat to have a winter car though. i've driven the Elantra/Tiburons in the snow and although they're good, only one wheel spins and it counter balances when driving on icy roads.
