Oh, if mine wasn't a rustbucket underneath, I'd probably use it in the winter too. Alas, subjecting it to just one more rust belt winter would land it in the junkyard for sure. (Not something you'd understand, I realize!)

So is the booger parked for the summer? I keep being reminded of your car because an MX3 showed up in town this spring... though painted orange and with a giant wing on the back.
