Winter Activity

Unread post by moose53 » November 26th, 2007, 8:30 pm

Anyone going to be tinkering with their jeeps over the winter, or does everyone just store them away til spring? I store mine due to the amount of salt they use on the roads here in the winter...

I will be driving mine through the winter seeing as we don't use salt in Central Texas. Nothing more than drives to Home Depot and through the neighborhood.

We don't use salt down here, south of Atlanta. The heater works and the doors and side curtains are on until the second week of March. They let the schools out if there is 2" of snow or more.
