Fall Time Change
 
Remember folks daylight saving Time ends at 2 AM on Nov 2nd. So tomorrow you can roll your clocks back one hour.

We can sleep in an extra hour Sunday morning.:BOUNCE:

A little extreme.
I use my car 12 months out of the year

There is a drastic difference from your location to his, especially in temperatures.

Not a moment too soon, that extra hour of daylight was starting to cause a drought out here. :mad: :icon17: :5091:

Yes it is a shipping container. As posted by another poster its isn't extreme because I only have street tires. Any hint of snow or ice and my G becomes useless. Also It has never been winter driven road salt in my opinion leads to costly premature repairs. I will drop by every two weeks to start it up. The containers are dry and clean and do not leak.:)

If you are going to start it you should take it for a run. If you just start it and shut it down, it will do more harm than good. You are better just to leave it, unless you take it for a run.
Check with RBull, he has been storing his coupe for years.

You're not doing the car any good starting it and idling. ;) I would consider leaving it alone until you bring it out in the spring.

I would be interested in seeing if the container stays free of condensation with temperature changes. :)

Thanks for the heads-up. I will take it for the odd boot weather permitting.:biggthumpup:

That's a better plan. A couple of decent runs over a 5 or six month period will be perfect for keeping the battery charged and everything cleaned out. Pick a warmer sunny day preferably after a day or two of rain so road salt has been washed away. This is the method I now use with my cars the last 5-6 years. :biggthumpup:
