Since Friday marks April 1, is it too soon to take the snow tires off? My new two car garage wants me to do some work in it. I hate so much that I have not played golf yet, this winter suc*ed so bad. Opinions?

If I wasn't so busy this week, I'd get my summer tires put on now! Of course, if it does snow again, my SVT can just sit in the garage and I'll take the Jeep that day

warm weather begins when I bring the pipe up from the basement and wash the car myself. Then wax it. Thats when warm weather for me begins

I just installed a really sweet exterior facet for the house. It has all of the valving inside the foundation so that it does not freeze and in turns on full in a quarter turn. I bought the best hose I could find with heavy duty brass couplings and a nice nozzle for it....I'm picking up the quick connect kit this week.
I bought a really soft car brush for washing the Stratus. I'm loaded up with wax for the Spring.
The Miata went for a short ride up the street the other day. Far enough to get thew fluids moving and short enough to stay cleaned. It will be another month before I bring it to work. Traffic in the parking garage stirs up alot of dust. It's so hard not driving the car. I saw a Ferrari Modena the other day flying down the Mass Pike and I thought to myself......10X the cost of my car and he's willing to drive it....
