Perhaps detail the engine. Very depressing. I am looking at a trip to Orlando this weekend...anyone wanna give me a SGT fix? I just need to drive it 10-15 feet!

SCGT500 Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 Just don't drive in road salt. Not even once. That is why mine is in storage in AZ Arizona?? You have snow in Arizona? I don't even have snow in Virginia Beach, and you are near the desert and have snow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps detail the engine. Very depressing. I am looking at a trip to Orlando this weekend...anyone wanna give me a SGT fix? I just need to drive it 10-15 feet! I know. It is depressing. It's too early in the season to have to break out the snow blower, but that's what I'll be doing tomorrow morning while my car sits in the garage. Looks like it is getting to be time to take it in to the dealership to have them take care of everything I've been putting off now that I can't drive it as much.

JeffIsHereToo Posted December 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 Ugh...I was in downtown Chicago today on Adams St (I think) and it was a cold day after a big snow storm. I was in a taxi on my way back to the train station when then I saw it on the side of the road. I had to rub my eyes to be sure, but yes it was. There on a busy city street, parked between cars, covered in salt and sand, was a white with blue stripe GT500. I wanted to jump out and take it home to a warm garage. I don't understand why anyone would need to drive this car on a snowy day when there is so much public transportation! I live 45 miles from the city and I can still get in and out in cabs and train. Poor thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilmor Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 I had to drive mine today on a business trip. 25 degrees, salty roads...yuck! I'll just make sure I get it washed this weekend when I get back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoDakMac Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 Yeah, six inches of snow last weekend and more coming tomorrow and this weekend; filled her with treated fuel; canceled her insurance (not collision); wrapped her in swaddling clothes in a nice heated shop. She will be getting her beauty treatment and pampered the next 4-5 months. No icy roads or salt for this gal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert OHara Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 Four or five inches of snow, I had to put my Shelby up for the winter. She is up about five feet in the air, waiting for spring.. I'll be cleaning the udersides now for quite awhile, rubber, rust. :snake: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe when people pay $45,000 or more for a car, they feel as if it should be driven??? Just a thought... Not everyone has 30 years to enjoy a car.....

Just a thought... Not everyone has 30 years to enjoy a car..... Driven? On a snowy day? A rear wheel 500HP car through snow and ice? Then leave it on the side of the road on a busy city street getting rocks, salt and sand, thrown at it all day long? You are right that they probably don't care about enjoying the car for 30 years.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right that they probably don't care about enjoying the car for 30 years.... True.. I see your point.. Although, after buying the Shelby, I sure as heck don't want to go spend more money on a beater car.. It's bad enough that people out here can't even drive with a little bit of rain falling from the sky.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
