    I average about eight months. It takes months after the last snowfall for the cinders to be cleaned up on my road.

    Ferraris deserve a better fate than to be driven on some (most) of the roads here in south west Pa. ;)

    it sucks

    But, when you take them out of storage, it is great! Except when you unzip the car bag and pray that it was totally effective against rodents

    Mine is never in storage... unless I'm working on it, it gets driven at least once a week.

    I know mine has been at the dealership getting something owed to me down for the past 7 days and I’m going crazy. I don’t know how I could own my car in a place where it would have to be put up for months on end. I guess from a depreciation point of view it’s would be better to park it 1/2 the year lol.
