Default Still On The Road

Had her out for a ride as recently as yesterday 12/9, but thinking about hibernation soon.

Who is still on the road?

Looking like mine will be a DD all winter. I thought I had a winter beater lined up but I'm not sure where that's going. Perhaps when the snow flies I'll be able to pick it up.

Worst case scenario, I'll be hosing her down weekly to keep the salt off of everything. Anyone have any ideas to keep suspension things from locking up? Perhaps some White Lithium grease or something?

I technically don't "put it away" I just sort of stop driving it.
I did roll back the suspension settings from kidney buster to just teeth rattling.

Still driving mine. As long as there is no salt on the road or wet out I take mine out.

Finally got mine back on Thursday. Spent a month in the repair shop from my last minor collision. Unfortunately, after looking at the repair closely, I'm not happy with it. I'm sure the shop won't be happy when I call them tomorrow. Oh well.

I drive it as much as possible year round. Don't trust myself in the snow though and that's what my Highlander is for.

Still on the road. Put a 1 week reminder on my calendar so that if I haven't used it by then I can pull the battery.
