Here is my Marauder, 2 photos, today downstairs in the garage.

The pic outside is looking out of the garage door. That's the Mystic Cobra. At least Vinny doesn't clean the snow and ice from it. No scratches that way.

It's good to own the house.

I'm sure my neighbors would laugh, and my wife hasn't been in the garage lately, I'm sure to get a reaction there.

Mines in my 4th stall...but nothings covering it.

I drive it every couple weeks if the roads are good...just for a mile or two :D


I cannot resist!

What do they know? Your neighbors are just jealous and your wife, well she like most females will never understand, unlike some of the fine women on this site.

Mine's in also, but that's no way to treat a Mystic Cobra. :(

Hi Mike,

I agree, but it's only a one car garage.

The Cobra is still up for adoption to a good home.

When the snow melts and we get rain which washes away the salt then the marauder comes out and runs around untill the salt trucks come out again. At least that is the plan. It's only Jan 7th, but so far so good.

Hey Jay....those covers are moving blankets. Really thick, and like $5.99 each at Harbor Freight. We have one of their outlets really close to me so I did'nt have to mail order. What a bargain!

I tend to sit stuff on the car over the winter, so the covers prevent those pesky little dings.

We've been REALLY lucky so far this winter in the DC area. Much warmer than normal and not even a hint of snow. I have to drive the MM every day and am so glad there have been no weather problems yet and none expected for at least another week. I have been using the good weather to get the wax on good and thick for when the salt comes...............yuck.

Hey Jon! I lived in Tyson's Corner (McLean) for like 6 mos when I was interning in DC! You drive into DC daily or Subway in?

I do buy stuff from harbor freight. I just wait untill I need a few things so the shipping handling is only about $5 in total.

I think those blankets will be in the next carton from them.

Jon,

I'm glad to hear the snow has stayed away from you. Being forced to drive the marauder in winter is one of those good side/bad side issues.

The car can take a bit of a beating
BUT you get to drive the Marauder.

Oh now you went and said it and this might spoil everything, darn. :lol: I was reluctant to put the snowman in the front yard this year because last year the snow came within 12 hours of planting the little sucker. This year he's stuck in the garage and I might not let him out at all. :rofl:

Blue,

I think I'd keep him someplace nice and warm, wouldn't want him to get cold.

This year I started my own anti-snow program.

see pic,

I sold my faithfull, clasic 1975 7/24 toro, and went with the new models since my shoulder is problamatic.

The large one has a clutch for each wheel.

Guess the battery died on the digital camera. That's not the photo I thought it would be.

However it is interesting in it's own right.

My wife bought it a baskin & robins. Didn't check the graphics untill it was candle time.
