Unlike some guys here who live in states that have the climate of Kenya, I have to prepare for winter. So I went and filled it up 50/50 race gas and 91 non ethanol. Then plastic and moth balls on the garage floor. I was surprised to to see race gas at only $7.49 a gallon. Last year it made it up to $8.99 for awhile.

That's a decent price. I have to burn 112 in my other car and just paid $7.50 per gallon.

Well I never put them in the car. I got a feeling that the mice won't go to the garage in the winter anyway. Still too damn cold.

C'mon... It's an old joke....

Bounce dryer sheets work well. Peppermint works too and smells a little better.

LOL, good one! Yeah, I love the winter time; just a short 2 hour drive to Lake Tahoe and lots of fun snow to play in :). Not good to have a seasonal car lol

Do you guys start your cars over the winter and let them run a bit or do you just winterize them and let them be until Spring?

well when my car is here, I usually start it up at least once a month, and if we haven't had snow for a while and ODOT hasn't turned the blacktop white with road salt I'll take it for a ride.
