I don't have a garage to keep her warm. I dunno if the snow long term is bad for the car (they don't salt the roads here THANK GOD!) but does anyone have experience with keeping a car safe from the weather if it has to be outside? Should I even be worried?










I know some of you are thinking "That isn't snow!" compared to your couple feet or whatever but this is only after an hour or so and it does get worse and it ices over the whole car to wear you can't even open the door.

 

Park it cuz most of the fools here in Oregon and Washington lose all driving skills in slick weather or they have 4x4's and SUV's and think they can drive normally cuz they have 4 wheel drive

 

do u have a driveway? that all bad bro

 

Yeah I just went and drove around for like 2 hours and found some empty parking lots and did some "controlled" loss of control practice. It was fun and I feel quite a bit more confident about my commute to work. I do have a parking lot in my apartment complex to park in but I am parking my car on side streets (away from traffic) because there is a hill to get out of my parking lot.

 

What happens when plows come by and your car is sitting on the street? A buddy of mine's integra was side swiped by an incompetent operator. Stuck him with the bill as well.

I'd just buy a beater for winter, personally.

 

That is why I said side street! Right there it is parked on the main street but only temporarily. I moved it to a safe street later on. I anticipated the snow plow and shitty drivers!
