Re: When does your driving season start?
Mine starts about now depending on the year. Our Winters are severe and sometimes we get lots of snow too. In the city I do see a few of our trucks being used all year around and don't forget when these trucks were new they were all anyone had to ,winter or summer.

Re: When does your driving season start?
We've had a mild winter and I've driven it a coupla times but its time to dust it off and start cruising it again. It's parked at work and just today when I was getting in my car to go home I had to pause and take a look at the old truck. This wekend will be busy with Easter stuff but next week it'll get a bath, an oil change and a fresh tank of gas and I'll put some miles on it.

Re: When does your driving season start?
We had a mild winter here also so I took it out a couple times between the end of October and now. Cruise nights will start kicking in again in a few weeks so the 69'er will be back out 5-6 days a week pretty soon!

Re: When does your driving season start?
Mine is going to start middle to the end of next week. Just finishing up brake work, new tires and getting all the little bugs worked out and she will be tearing up and down the road. Was hoping for sooner since the winter was very mild here but injury put me on the sideline when it came to working on it.

Re: When does your driving season start?
Mine never has stoped except when it was being painted. I taking it to the Pickens County airport show next Saturday I think along with the golf carts if they will have them.
