Default Top down weekend

Suppose to be in the 40's.

If it's sunny and in the 40's I gotta get my car washed and drive around a bit with top down.

Very doubtful, there's still a foot of snow in front of the building the car is in.

There's still a ton of salt everywhere around here so thats a negative.

I'm not so much afraid of snow as much I'm afraid of salt.

I've had my top down numerous times all winter. Ya'll are a bunch of wussies... except for the salt concern, perhaps.

I'm actually going to be away from Chicago (and thus, my car) this weekend. Otherwise, I'd try to arrange a top-down cruise.
