Default Re: Ok, I've got a question for the Northerners....long.

Minnesota is currently -4º and snow on the way. The Model A works great in snow, don't need to go to Florida.
Here is what you do instead. Take that Florida money and use it to put heat, water and a floor drain in your old car garage. Turn up the heat, hang the tarps, drive in the snow, when you get back turn on the water and take the hose and wash down the car. Get a curved extension so you can spray underneath too. Wipe it down. Go in the house, turn up the heat, grab a hot brandy, plop in the recliner.
Oh yeah, you can make a lot more room if you sell the 'vette.

Hmm....I'll take it all under consideration, we'll except for selling the Vette part. It was my dream car growing up and I finally acquired it in 2003 so it's got a warm spot in my heart. BUT, if I had to choose I'd sell it over the Phaeton.
