    After all these posts i sure mis the 70's when all i had was my 65 coupe push the snow off with a broom and get to work. the only winter change was 4 snow tires with steel wheels. Pint of black berry once and a while. Blanket for the girlfriend.
    yep...things sure have changed...but actually winterizing does not teally apply to a daily driver!!! Also..I don't think the question is "winterize or not"..cuz "not" implies park it and do NOTHING to it til spring. just saying...;-)

        And therein lies the beauty of freedom..we each get to decide for ourselves and our cars!!! See my post #5 re:religious war. But just know you will find few informed folks advocating to do nothing but park it for however many months as being best practice. That said...I am a minimalist myself and feel too much is made of the winterizing topic in general. But I feel there are few easy, quick measures that are worth doing if nothing else for cheap insurance.
