I just plain hate winter. And to make it worse, my garage doesnt have heat or electricity.
So not only cant I drive my car, I cant really work on it either.

Just want to rant, and misery loves company, so feel free to rant along with me.

Let's hear it from the winter haters!

I loath winter too.  If my family and my wifes family was not here in Indiana, we would be living in the Fort Meyers and Naples area.  Texas sounds good too.

winter does suck, I get to work while its still dark and I get off when it gets dark. I get home and I can't do much in garage it's freezing cold. Can't afford to heat up 3 car garage either with energy being so high already.

Winter sucks. It went from 65 here to 12 at night this week. Talking about freezing rain tomorrow and snow for 3 day. The cold weather makes my bones and joints hurt. I work outside so I get to breath in cold air all the time and deal with dry skin. My hands are already dry and cracked.

I hate cold weather. Thats why 7 years ago we moved from Philadelphia to Florida. At the time I had the money to either restore my 68 or move to Florida. So we got the charger driveable and moved to florida. So now in the winter I drive my charger with the 41 year old paint.

I don't mind it as winter allows for well, Winter time working on cars..If it were sunny and 70 all year, I wouldn't get anything done at all. Especially on customer's cars...

But, if it makes you feel any better I hate winter too....There, Now i'm one of the bunch... :2thumbs: :D

I hate winter and I hate Illinois, the weather sucks and it's the most corrupt state in the country. I was born in Tampa, Florida and I think I might move back one day soon.

Born and raised in New Hampshire. I don't like 90º+ heat. Cold temps don't bother me until it gets below 10º. At my age I tolerate winter. Makes you appreciate spring ,summer and fall. Gives me a chance to work on the cars. Plus I have a heated shop to hide in ;)

There's nothing better than walking outside in the morning and have your testicles shrink a few sizes. Then walking out to the garage to have the garage door freeze up making you stand outside longer, making your testicles shrink a couple more sizes. Boy do I love winter!

Hold on, I'm still laughing. :hah:
Oh that was funny.  I was just telling my daughter tonight how I have a hobby of driving the Charger and for the winter months it's cold and dark.  Hope to move within 10 years.  South Carolina or around there.
This car was sold many years ago to somebody in Wisconsin. I now am retired and living in Florida.

Okay, so what's the most musclecar-friendly, handgun-friendly, no-snow, lowest-cost-of-living state where you can drive your car all year long?
